It sounds like you've got a good 'scoring' flight time, GPA and education. Look through your app and see if there are some other boxes that are within reach. Like Olario did, keep checking the boxes and updating your app. Have others review your app (prep services or other pilots) and look for things to improve.

I've heard that everything from spelling to punctuation to consistency is scored once a human looks at it, but it has to meet a minimum raw score before it's pulled from the computer. Keep adding those check boxes until it meets the magic number.

Any other suggestions for flyguy81?
Short of adding more ratings I'm at a loss of what other boxes to check. I've got a few internal recs and as friends get hired will keep adding. I added some volunteer work to the app but with 2 kids under 2 I haven't done much lately. Went to WIA in March. Missed OBAP due to work....heard there they were looking you up on the computer to tell you what your score was and ways to increase it.
