Title: what are my odds
Post by: superman on Mar 21, 2012, 10:14
Hey I am in the process of applying for a SWO position and I was just curious if someone might have a rough idea of my odds of being accepted...?  My bachelors is in Mathematics and Physics with gpa about 3.4 and I have an Associates degree in business management even though that is probably worthless in this case.  My work history is really good, as I have worked full time or more throughout my entire adult life and educational career to support myself while going to school.  Really my only blemish might be marijuana use, which was a stupid high-school thing that I have been done with for a long time.  Really, they would never even know if I said I never touched it, but I told the truth because I figured they're crazy for not accepting an excellent applicant for a small amount of marijuana use years ago and I didn't want to lie about anything.  I don't know, maybe I'm wrong.  Anyways, I'm new to the military world in general so any help and/or advice would be appreciated.  Thanks.
