  3. Thanks. I've already printed them out. I've taken Barron's Tests, Peterson's Test, AFOQT Study Book Version T Test, and two downloaded online tests as though I was taking the real test. Thanks for the help.

  4. each Senior Rater has his own style for how they like their PRFs, based on their board knowledge, etc. Top Line: half Senior Rater comments, the other half highlighting you entire career, such as breadth of what you've done, # of #1 strats (if a lot and if not all used in the PRF), air medals, # deployments, flying hours, etc... just depends for each individual. do not list duty titles as those can be seen in the surf and your OPRs and is a waste of space. there is also room on top line for certain awards (if they don't fit on line 2). Line 2: reserved for awards, start out with DGs, school awards, then from left to right with importance... annual better than quarterly, wing better than group, etc. denominators can be used too. i.e. Wg CGOY (#1/102); etc. if not everything will fit, then sometimes its appropriate to list them in lines 3 through 8... Line 3 - 8: annual strats should be to the left... with most important on the left. Wg strats are usually better than Gps, better than Sq, etc. just depends on the actual strat, who said it and what category it is. i.e. #4/20 Capts (Wg/CC) is probably better than #2/36 CGOs (Sq/CC).... but its a preference thing... probably shouldn't go more than 3 strats deep per line. oldest strats should be line 3, most recent strats towards line 8. the right side of lines are used for OPR bullet material. use Led XXmbrs, directed $XXB program, Commanded X member operation, etc. Line 9: Senior Rater comments... the 2 best things to have on here are My X/XX Eligibles at the beginning... your CC can sneak in a current strat (if not on your last OPR) such as, currently my #4/54 Capts... the end should also include school push, job push, and most importantly --Definitely Promote!. even if you don't have DP checked below it.

  7. I got 14 wrong out of 25. I felt like the problems took more of my time than the books. Maybe it's just me.

  9. I also thought the call was worth my time. They'll go through your record to see if there are any glaring problems (depth/breadth of assignments, etc). They don't have notes from the board, but they have 10 records from the gray zone that were above the cut line to compare against yours. The two things I was told that they could guess as to why I didn't make it was no awards, and I didn't have the words "definitely promote" in my push line. I also talked with my senior rater afterwords- he didn't believe in putting "definitely promote" in a push line (there's a checkbox for that), and was somewhat surprised to hear that it was a common thing in the sample of records afpc had to brief from. In the end, it all worked out and I made it on the next look.

  11. Just heard through the Bomber functional at AFPC...the SECAF is announcing the details of the FY17 bonus tomorrow and the PSDM will be up at 0800 CDT Tuesday. No details other than there is going to be some quote-unquote good news.

  12. I have and it was much harder than the Barron's or the AFOQT Study guide book I got. I was wondering, from those who have taken the AFOQT recently, which study material prepared them better?

  13. I know it's the form T and I've been on AF's website, downloaded their study materials, but I wanted to see from other who have taken the AFOQT recently, which study guide really helped them. Thanks for the reply.

  14. Giant waste of time. They'll tell you the obvious. Either you have a huge discriminator or your record just isn't strong and was in the bOttom x %

  15. Everyone I know got a few tidbits out of it but it didn't help them for their APZ. Too many "leaders" have already written off once passed over dudes. There were a bunch (30 ish?) of APZ with a P this year though which is a change.

  18. Depends, can I go down to the local kid shelter and pick out a new cuter one? Does the kid shed? Incidentally today I was upset when a kid owner let his kid piss on my tire while he was walking his kid. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

  19. I always considered myself extremely lucky and felt very humbled to have been trained by some of the guys who flew this mission. Getting to listen to their stories first hand during sims was always an awesome experience.

  20. For those who bank with USAA and don't already play the credit card rewards game, this is a great one-card solution. https://www.usaa.com/inet/wc/bank_cc_limitless_cashback_visa_signature BL: limitless 2.5% cashback on every purchase, no annual fee, the only catch is you have to direct deposit at least $1K monthly with USAA. Even for those with a handful of rewards cards already I think it has a place. I applied and was approved 10 seconds later and it doesn't appear like it's affected by any kind of 5/24 rule like Chase. Adding to my roster of travel cards and will be used for anything that doesn't qualify for a higher rewards rate on another card.

  21. You guys are really arguing over which states are better? Lived in CA for 10 years, lived in TX coming up on 2. I hate them both. Sent from my Pixel using Baseops Network Forums mobile app
