I was told my chances to branch Army Aviation were below 50%(because I had glasses) I was told my chances of having 20/20 after surgery were low because of the amount of prescription. I did branch Army Aviation and got 20/15 after surgery. When you want something it can be possible, just have to stay positive. 50% maybe the DGI rate but at least they give you a try, and from my point of view I would give 110%+ the day of the interview, I would fight for it cause I really want it. Again that is my point of view, no offense to any one.

This is the best attitude of anyone here. Before anyone here tells you where to shove your dream and what not, the DGI is rigged, a failure etc etc. Keep your head up, study hard and you do you. Don’t mind all this hoopla

Because the following month it appears there will be no movement to delta as there currently shows no interviews but there shows interviews the following month.... I'm more impressed with the 7 captains that all quit the same day for the same class at United and others I've heard of going to Jet Blue and Southwest.

Thanks! Work hard play hard right!? And I hope every prospective candidate that goes through the DGI has success rate!

Even better then. Glad to see guys aren't just sitting around waiting for the DGI instead of having apps out to other options.

I can guarantee you one thing about the DGI. If you go into the interview with the BS victim mentality that seems to breed both here and in the facebook group, you will not be successful. Attitude is a huge factor in whether you are successful or not. It's a shame so many seem to get caught up in all the nonsense.

Classes are assigned 5 weeks out. There will be April classes whether they interview or not.

Agree, attitude is huge towards everything. So how DGI works? Once I get to CA and serve 18 months, I’ll be schedule for an interview? Or is there any other requirement that is not listed at the moment? Also upon successful completion of the interview I’ll get a class date quick or I’ll be placed in a waiting list?
