In the current situation mate, I hate to say it but if you've got a low recommendation, it's unlikely you will get a spot. so few spots are being handed out, only the top ones are getting the nod. Army SSO is stopped completely so there's one avenue out of the picture. My first time around, I found out I had a low recommendation, was made medically unfit for Army and didn't get picked up for Raaf or Navy. I'm better placed this time around but where exactly in the pool, they wont tell you. But let's face it, you could be tenth place and if only 9 spots get offered, you miss out. Then again, a big intake maybe just around the corner. It's out of your hands at this point and I know it's hard but just stay with it. 10 years ago, it was a different story I am told, there were more spots available than people in the pool!
If you don't get a call, you can do it all again. If you want it.
