Hello all. Very useful blogs to help all new candidates to join DoD. My application went to the board (June). I do have few questions and would appreciate some responses. 1. How long it will take for me to find out if I get picked or not by the board (applied as RPh)? 2. if I get selected; how long do I have to be prepared for the ODS? 3. Is it difficult to pass? What part or the physical/swimming tests should I emphasis on? I would like to connect with someone who can guide and help me to be prepare for this upcoming life changing endeavor of mine. I do have few other questions related active duty as well as regarding my assigned posts. Thank you all.
