    I'm the same way. I hate not having every detail nailed down instantly and not knowing every possible answer right away. I need to learn how to deal with that kind of stuff too.

    There you go I see it now. It is written as a note on the bottom but I guess in mine their was not date provided in the statement.

    I believe your security clearance just needs to be open to receive a FS letter, someone can correct my if that is incorrect.

    When it comes down to it though, we all know that we're pretty much fine at this point. The simple fact that we are all members on this site says a little something about how much we value information and would like to control our own paths. The vast majority of us will be going to Newport. Just hurry up and wait ;)...

    Can anyone shed some light on this, I can't find anything official documentation....
    I've heard from several people that: the top 10 percent graduates of any OCS class are commissioned Active duty Navy, while the remaining 90 percent are commissioned Naval Reserve. Is this true?

    Absolutely not true. Not even close.

    AD applicants,
    How much time is it usually allowed to complete any medical inquiry that CNRC sends out after being pro-rec'ed? I know I don't have much time but being on deployment might be an issue for me to update some medical paperwork? Is anyone else going through the same thing?

    what paperwork do you need to update?

    You should have a provider that can sign off anything you need and your health record is all accessible online for them to see.

    I cleared meps back in November 2011 as well as a Deployment screening last month. No medical issues.

    Only thing I am waiting on is my conditional release to be signed by PERS. They for some reason would only approve it for 90 days at a time so now I got to call them on monday and ask them to push it thru since I recieved a pro rec.

    Sorry I guess I worded it wrong.

    What are the FINDOCS?

    I am assuming it is the meps paperwork and everything??

    I have to have a DD2807-1 form that's not older then 90 days. I submitted my ocs package february 17 for march supply board and by the time swo board commenced my 2807 was useless by default. Oh, I also have to provide a sugar and protein urinalysis result. I've never done it but it shouldn't be a big deal.

    The 90 days for the medical paperwork doesn't matter if there are no issues and a PQ letter is issued, if there are issues they will want a new 2807 with the new info.

    NavyOFFRec,
    That makes perfect sense. Thanks for clarification.

    Funny how this works out: waiting for my FS letter is making me no less ansy than I was for my pro-rec. The waiting game sucks.

    Just went to my MEPS Friday. I agree with you Ray-Ban. Just as bad as pro-rec.

    I passed it, but anybody else think the depth perception test with the circles was a little weird?

    I swear none of the circles was raised on number 10. At least it didn't look like it to me. The administrator made some comment about how that test is particularly tricky.

    I did some research and apparently there can be all sorts of problems (administrator error, machine lighting, damaged cards, incorrect alignment) with this type of depth perception testing. Apparently the minutes of arc test we'll (hopefully) get at NAMI is much more accurate.

    The corpsman who was doing some of my testing made me laugh. Asked me "How do you know when a pilot is at a party?..........He'll tell you."
