My shop is MSgt heavy now, the two guys that tested made it and only 1 of the 4-6 that tested for TSgt made it. 4 MSgt and 2 TSgt now, it's looking good for an IPCOT.

4th time for tech and missed by 2.xx points... guess 5th time is a charm. Retrained into Air Traffic Control and our SKT is no fk'n joke. Woulda been Tech years ago if I was still a sheetmetal guy. Ahh, what can ya do. Who needs that $7K pay raise anyway.

Congrats to all the promotees! I will be testing for MSgt (1st time) when i get back from Iraq. Been in for 12yrs so i see this as my chance to "get ahead". I feel confident knowing what the cutoffs are before i test, I only have to score 65's!!

I'm a staff and drive a Vette. My wife put on Capt. last year so it's pretty much her car. I can't even afford the gas on my paycheck. lol

Does she make you salute before going to bed....j/k If my wife was military and I had a similar situation she would constantly remind me that is was her car, and not let me live it down, she probably would barely let me drive it.

I missed Tech by 6pnts. This was my 4th time testing. I missed it by 4 last year. Hopefully i make it next year, i really do. I studied my *** off and it seems like every year, there are more screwed up questions on the test. I dunno. Congrats to everyone who made it.

I didn't really study, so I expected not to make it. What DID frustrate me though, was once I found out what the cutoff was - I would have easily been in there for MSgt by over 13 points based on my score when I made Tech.

But doesnt things change when you test again? Like TIG? So you really cant go off of what you made as a tech. Well unless you been a tech for awhile I guess where you built TIG pts up.
