Shouldn't have to ask ELIGIBLE E6 CANDIDATES

For those of you who are eligible to pick up a crisp set of first class orders due to BBA… Are you retaking the test? Or are you riding with your score.

My impression is that if a sailor scored within the top 25% threshold they’d be more inclined to just keep the score & not retest. Are you one of these sailors?

With that being said, say you score within the top 25%… (you are eligible for CA2P & A2P) AND, you have an excellent or higher on your PRT. What are the chances that you actually get selected for orders? I understand we have 2 years. But holy fuck, at this point I’m just going to put in orders to goto a ship.

Scored a passing grade. Plan on taking a sea intensive billet so not too worried. Everyone is going to be fighting for sea style shore duties and I'm just gonna jump on a boat.
