61% isn't great. Looks like someone resigned before PAs so only 17 of them took evals, still counts in the pass rate imo.

Seems like I was hearing that some didn't do so great on their Ground runs. Giving the wrong taxiways, not reissuing hold-short instructions when the airplane is told to continue taxi, not having the correct type aircraft on the VFR strips, and not scanning for local's traffic before asking to cross a runway. First two are all nerves, that last one about scanning takes some practice and conscious thought to get it correct all the time.
So real question... when an individual doesn't "do so great on their ground runs" and sends a vehicle hauling ass across a runway, does local eat any points for that?
We were discussing that scenario arising the other day and weren't sure. I'd be beyond highly irate if my ground controller handed me a bust when i'm not allowed to lean over and say "yo, hold that guy!"

That's the ground controller's problem. That's not Local's fault so Local wouldn't lose any points.

Woudnt local be responsible for sending aircraft around at that point? If they failed to scan to see the unathorize crossing and let someone land, wouldn't they lose points?

No (but in the real world, yes.....just not at the Academy.)
Which is why it's better to let the guy land even if you do see the unauthorized crossing because Local isn't responsible for Ground's mistake.
Don't know where everyone is going but 3 or 4 are going to PRC. PIE and FXE where also on there as well as Palo Alto and Florence.

STT, JAN, MMU, BHM, ACK, JAN, FLO, SYR, CAK, CPS, CBB, STT, AGC, API, BGM, ABI, HTS, MLU, ADS, MMU, TOL, MRY. Don't know how many will actually chose but here's 22.
So 2 OCONUS out of 22 means 14 passed?

I heard they went into today with 12 so I shouldve put two more. Heard that after I posted originally.
I know that I am still waiting on my FOL, but I think it's time I tell my wife that there's a high chance when I finally get to select, they'll probably only be 1 or 2 places we both want to live.

Gonna be even worse when the selection process changes in a few weeks
We didn't see the sun for more than a month or 2 while I was stationed at NUW, trying to avoid a similar situation as much as possible.

The 2 spots for STT are for the class that graduates May 18th. 2 students must have preselected already.
Ah true.
