I was hoping to go 37F after my minimum time on the trail. I noticed the highest rank accepted was SGT, considering I am a SSG, is this true and non waivable or was I reading it wrong?

As a former SORB Company Commander and PSYOP Officer (37A) I will simply suggest you one thing: talk with a PSYOP Recruiter. He/she will tell you the latest and greatest!

It’s not true. Sgt is the minimum so if you are a Pfc or specialist and get selected and complete mos you get bumped up to sgt.

You can always request a grade waiver. If you're an exceptional candidate you may get an exception to policy. What's working against you is that after two years on the trail you will be highly competitive for SFC and would be graduating the Q Course as an E7 but with no experience. So, an ETP will be harder to get.

As someone going thru it now, I’m a PV2 and once you pass selection and MOS training they send you to BLC and promote you to SGT you also have to get a 180 (60 each event) on the APFT before even going to selection

You can apply with a waiver. As long as you meet the GT of 100 and pass the SERE/ Airborne physical. Also, you will need a 210 (70 each event) on your APFT. This will get you classed, selected not so much.

The website may be out of date (don't get me started......) so best bet is contact the nearest Psyop recruiter. I believe you should have one local but can't be sure you're at Lewis based on your profile. Either way, as a SSG your window for A LOT is closing fast. So if you want to do anything besides return fire and find cover, time is of the essence.

(MOS 37F), is the Army Psychological Ops Specialist. A minimum score of 107 on the General Technical (GT) portion of the ASVAB test, these are the new standards as of 12 August 2020. You have to submit DA form 4187, it's better to do it upon relisting.

That's old information. GT scores for all ARSOF MOS' have been reduced to 100, and the packet does NOT require a 4187. It requires a SERE physical, ARSOF volunteer statement, DA 705, ERB, and any waiver paperwork.
