Final Select Purgatory

[cito]

Checking out. Was selected on the September board for SNA, got FINSEL to join the 29NOV class.

Tobe, are you already active duty enlisted? Congrats on finsel!

Thank you. I'm a civilian applicant.

NRD NE has a long history in its OR department and much of it isn't good.

Well this makes me nervous. I'm not even Pro Rec Y and hearing this doesn't make me feel good. Granted, taking my ASTB (both times) was an operation in itself, because the computer kept malfunctioning.

Did you take your astb in Boston too?

 

[SoopurHero816]

Yes

 

[Timothy Jefferson]

When was the pilot board? I did a little worse than you did on the astb. So i think You should be alright.

It took me a few weeks after the board for swo this post August to hear back. I was getting pretty nervous myself because of how long the wait was.

 

[SoopurHero816]

Well I missed the August panel, so I am waiting on this Nov/Dec panel

I haven't gotten mine yet. My NCC did call me at some point while I was flying today and said I needed to call back as soon as possible. I tried calling 3 times and there was no answer. I will attempt to go talk to them both tomorrow, they are so hard to find half the time because they are so busy. I will let you know what I find out.

I think your OR is trying to make you feel better, the PM works from the oldest board to the newest unless someone is age critical or other circumstances.

Can't always be true if @Tobe has Finsel and I'm SNA from June 30. I'm non age critical, non prior as well though (sounds like @Tobe doesn't have any special circumstance though).

Congrats @Tobe by the way

@NavyOffRec, Luck involved too?

I had a flight physical and security clearance from applying to the Marines. May have had something to do with it.

There is a little bit of luck in just about everything, and everyone hopes luck will go there way, just ask any single guy in a bar on Friday or Saturday night.
