I have already taken the ASVAB 3 times and have only received a 100 GT which by policy is not good enough. Any thoughts?

Not to be rude, if that is your goal you need to study harder and retake the test. Hard work pays off. Having a lower GT score can impact future promotions and assignments. So it would help you across many fronts to raise your score.

to be perfectly blunt, if someone has taken the ASVAB 3 times already and the best they can do is a 100 GT and the minimum for commission is 110, maybe it's time to accept the fact that they are just not cut out to be an officer. We all have different abilities and limitations, no shame in admitting it. Had a friend in college that wanted to be a doctor more than anything but no matter how much he studied and how hard he tried, he could never score high enough on the MCAT to get into medical school.

I absolutely don't think there is a waiver for the GT score.

Maybe you should try to become the best NCO you can be.
