What would you like to know?
The first thing I learned when going before the Board? Shave my moustache! I was passed-over once and my CSM told me why: my moustache! I shaved it and got promoted on the next board!
The second thing I learned? Listen to your CSM's at battalion and brigade-level!
The third? Plug any holes NCOER-wise.
Next: [Retype your 2-1, or] make sure it (your PQR) is perfect, information-wise.
Have your mentor, then your CSM look over your packet to make sure it is the best it can be before you send it forward.
And, finally, be prepared to move: "Jesus can't be more than the carpenter's son in Nazareth" and "familiarity breeds contempt." You may have to accept an assignment somewhere else for several reasons, the first two I mentioned already, and s third is that the higher you go, the less positions there are available.
Sorry, my information is old, I retired in 2010! Please let me know if you need anything else. I am always happy to do what I can to help.

Just did some digging and was able to find it on the USAR G1 website. You'll need CAC access to get to it but this is the link:
