2LT Private RallyPoint Member 5015511 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>This fall I will be submitting a ROTC Green to Gold ADO packet. I’ve asked a lot of acceptants, officers, and ROTC recruiters; the general answer to the above question is that the board is mainly focused on everyone’s GPA, and as long as you have a respectable PT score and a passing GT, there should be no issues. <br /><br />I’ve been told that previous awards and positions don’t really matter or are looked at, as long as your OMPF is valid. How true is that? <br /><br />Does age play a factor into this? I’m 22 years old. <br /><br />Last but not least, how competitive do you think my numbers are? My recruiter sent me the national averages for those accepted in 2018, I matched them up to mine below. <br /><br />Age/Rank - 22 years old, SPC (joined October 2016) <br />My GPA - 3.85 72 credits | National Avg - 3.30 GPA<br />My PT - 250 (retake soon) | National Avg - 280 <br />GT Score - 120 | National Avg - 118 <br /><br />Plan on having a LOR from BDR CDR, previous BDE CDR and BDE XO, and my current CC. 2019-09-12T02:23:22-04:00 2LT Private RallyPoint Member 5015511

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I believe that you are over thinking it. You&#39;ll do fine. You know answers come slow in the Army unless they are telling you someone died. I wish you good luck. And if you do become an Officer, don&#39;t forget where you came from.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Your GPA is above average so you should be fine. I believe the max age for ROTC is 30 or 32 so you are well under that. I started college late and was 22 when I started. I was too old for ROTC scholarships but still was accepted

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Sounds like you are as good a candidate as any.<br />It is normal to stress, but it will come out as it is supposed to.<br />If you are destined to become a Lieutenant and get your platoon lost in the woods, then it was meant to be.<br />Good luck.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Just get the PT score a little higher. Overall, you have a good chance. Keep positive and if it does not work out, have a Plan B.
