Hi all,

I'm creating this thread for those who applied or planning to apply for March 7 IDC board.
I missed the previous Dec' 15 board due to missing transcript

I'll be dropping a package for the March board as well. Here's to hoping the %'s increase.

Is it common for first quarter boards to be cancelled?

We're wrapping up the first quarter of FY16 but to answer your question not really.

I would say it isn't uncommon for smaller designators to cancel one of their boards during the year

Checking in. I am applying for IP/IW/Intel. I plan to have everything on my CO's desk before the 15th of this month.

My transcript was retrieved and sent to NRC, I guess this means that it has been submitted.

I'm an IT too but for the civilian side, doing your current job with the Navy do you get exposed to the latest and greatest gadgets? I assume you like it having IP as your first option

 

[gtwhitegold]

If you want the latest and greatest, I would tell you to work with a SPECWAR unit. They generally get better hardware than the fleet. However, you are much more likely to work with a SPECWAR unit if you are an Enlisted IT vice as an IP Officer.
