Just graduated college but I have no leadership experience. I am filling out paperwork to give to the recruiter to make a packet to submit this month. Physically fit, B.S. in Information Systems, 3.11 GPA. I have great letters of recommendation. Do I have a chance to be an officer with no leadership experience?

Edit:

I've already taken the Asvab, got a 99. All my scores were high.
The recruiters, along with the people who wrote me letters of recommendation, would gladly do mock interview boards with me, so I will utilise them.

My father retired as a CW5 and my brother is a sergeant. Just felt like including a few more details.

Plenty of people get into OCS without any experience. You can get accepted.

Most of the people going to OCS have limited leadership experience. It's a big part of what the school is supposed to teach you.
Have you taken the ASVAB already?

Can't be any worse than any other Lt in the field... LOL. Just listen to your guys, NCO's and they're direct you where you need to go. Trust in the NCO leadership
