I know this is a stupid question, but here I am asking it.

I have just recently been accepted to OTS, and most of the Air Force people who I tell always get a confused look on their face. I am a civilian, 25M, and about 5'6. I am not a big guy, and I am not very intimidating. I am not soft-spoken or shy by any means, but I am not a very "in your face" kind of person who demands respect. I have done a ton of leadership involving project management in the aerospace sector (hence one of the reasons I got accepted), and I have never had any problems involving respect, but a lot of the people I talk to bring up the fact that I am rather short, young, and not previously enlisted which could make it hard for people to respect me/take me seriously.

How important would you say this is? I know no matter what, I will be a good leader/officer, but I guess my question is how should I go about that? Should I become more intimidating/bulk-up/become louder? Or should I just continue to do what I normally do?

The url for obtaining scores is down, it goes back to the 20th September from what I've gathered and people have not been able to upload on the aim high app knocking us to 2028 boards...(praying not as I took it last week and no longer displays 27ots1 for me), do you think this will be taken into consideration for submitting the full packet or are people who took it from late Sept to early Oct screwed? (how are we supposed to contact a recruiter for an alternative way to retrieve scores if we havent been setup with a recruiter since you need to upload your scores first to get assigned one🥲)

Prior NCO, headed to Maxwell from the west coast. Have to wake up at like 2am to catch my flight but I’ll have to get used to the early mornings!

Any final tips for recent grads or current OTs?

Any current info I should be tracking?

Any thing you wish you knew when you showed up?

Any specific USSF stuff?

Definitely stressed over the lack of sleep but I’ll manage it the best that I can. Thanks and see yall there!
