OK everyone I'm going to do my best to add to this conversation. My son enlisted in Feb. of this year and since he had a low ASVAB score of 25 he was signed up for the O9M program, he shipped out on June 10 2024 spent one week in reception and then was moved to where the program was being offered @ this time it is FT. Jackson SC. He just finished the program last Friday with a test score of 54 and jumped 29 points. He told me that they are suspending the program and according to what he was being told they're sending some people home. He is currently still in SC waiting on a hold for 3 weeks until they put him and others in a BCT unit. This program worked for my son and I hope it works for others don't give up stay strong and vigilant. Texas Army National Guard Go Guard.

@@randimiller248 Yes the video shares it’s still open for AD and to my understanding from an AD Recruiter of mine, it’s dependent on the AD Recruiter to put in someone who score over 50 for one 16-20 09M and one must score over a 31 to put in a 21-30 09M. Just to clarify…

[@DozSkills]

Question: You mentioned that green card holders would have their naturalization citizenship after serving a particular amount of time. Would those service members who are green card holders still have to submit the forms to USCIS ( US Citizenship and Immigration Services) needed to obtain their naturalization citizenship? I have heard of service members thinking they would get it automatically, and when they found out they didn't get their naturalization citizenship automatically, they were disgruntled towards the military.

[@TEAMSWARTZ]

Hello there and thank you for reaching out! great question and to answer your question… They’ll complete a N-400 and N-426 before the ship and bring it with them or while at the training site. They’ll receive the study guide and at some point during their BCT/OSUT training they’ll knock out the written and verbal tests. On graduation day they’ll typically knock out the U.S. Citizenship Ceremony right before the Graduation Ceremony. It’s not automatic. It’s just free and expedited.

@@TEAMSWARTZ Thank you for the quick response. Yes, I wish some service member would do the research instead of assuming it's automatic.

Was 09m available for Cat3 applicants? I really hate the army regulation on no retest after a qualifying score.

[@TEAMSWARTZ]

@@PdaadAbdullah It doesn’t matter if you’re a CAT4 or 3B… It’ll reopen on or after Oct 1st described in the video. If you’re currently a 3B, you can go through the BSEP Course at the Education Office on any Army base within your career. It’s limited to how many times you can but it’s available later on. You’re not stuck forever… Hope that helps and good luck!

[@PdaadAbdullah]

@@TEAMSWARTZ I understood from the video that the program is currently closed and will not open until the new fiscal year. My question specifically pertains to if that option was available for 3b applicants. Thanks for the information on Bsep.

@@victorbendel4488 09M is the Code we use in the system to identify this program but 09M is the FSPC/Future Soldier Preparatory Course where applicants can lose body fat and/or increase their ASVAB scores.

[@brittanyscott3809]

Now this may sound irrelevant to the subject here but I just have to get this off my chest. I know of a female soldier I work with who is in the guard with me. She wants to earn the rank E-5 Sergeant. However, the thing I find infuriating is she has a strong sense of entitlement complex. It’s Her Way or the Highway and All About Her Her Her. She cannot take being corrected or told to do something and yet she still wants to be a Sergeant and has applied for an E-5 Sergeant slot at five different units now. For this reason, a lot of NCO’s feel she is not mature enough for this leadership role. I believe she is not ready to handle it. Respect is s two way street and if she expects other soldiers to respect her but she cannot give respect, other soldiers will disrespect her back. She still has yet to understand that she’s not entitled to other people’s respect. That has to be earned as well. E-5 promotions and respect is not given freely like candy. The sun does not shine on her behind and other people and their respect does not revolve around her.

[@TEAMSWARTZ]

Control the things you can control. Sounds to me the NCO’s already know what’s up and are responsible for rating her. If she’s found to be the way you say she is, she won’t out score you or others and her evaluations will reflect that. Focus on how you can improve yourself, hone your skills/knowledge and potential leadership skills. When making an on the spot correct, do so in a way that you would like someone else to do so to you. Be the hardest working person in the room, work well with others, possibly help her be better and take the time to get to know her and how she ticks. Hopefully your leaders are mentoring you guys and developing you. Good luck and thank you for sharing!

I took the asvab 13 years after high school. I made a decently high score. I was nervous going in since it had been so long since my last test like that. I understand that everyone is smart in their own. With all that said, scoring below a 32 is failure on yourself. Not doing the research into what is on the asvab and focusing on what you struggle with is lazy. I know this could be mean. However, if your aren't able to take constructive criticism, you may want to rethink your career choice. Their are confusing parts of the test with the patterns and such, but failing the math and reading comprehension falls on you failing yourself in preparation for the test and the commitment you're going to make.

[@bryanqr1094]

I was in 09mike, because English is my second language and I honestly do not recommend it, that program is garbage, almost everything they give you is not included in the test, the test is almost 70% algebra and algebra classes are only 1 or 2 days, there is a review of everything you have seen in school life. Better study and prepare yourself and don't waste your time on 09mike, seriously, it's 2 weeks of classes with a military regiment, the physical punishment is constant, you're very tired and you don't want to study every 3 weeks, the program opens, so if you didn't pass it, you're recycling for another company until you pass the ASVAB that is until you reach your 3rd recycling and if you pass well, otherwise they will give you a waiver to go to infantry, most likely.
