Having a PPL and 85 hours definitely helped her PCSM score; I knew juniors in the program who would buy 10hrs in a C150 just to better their chances.
As far as my commission...no, unfortunately didn't make it quite that far. I was pushed out of the Detachment after my 3rd semester because I didn't medically qualify to go to Field Training (or my scholarship - stupid one entry of asthma in my medical records at age 14 and stupid DoDMERB for giving that more credence to my actual health than a 420+ PFT score).
I tried again in the ANG, but was medically disqualified for something else.
God didn't wish for me to be an Air Force officer, I guess...
