   No idea what irr is but that sucks! But isn't the board already reviewing/have reviewed your app? So even if your app has to be placed on hold temporarily, hopefully that doesn't affect the results! Anyone heard anything from their recruiters about r...

   I won't disclose location but I simply did a google search for the answers and anything I didn't know/couldn't answer fully I asked my interviewer. So long as you did your research and show a willingness to learn, you'll be fine!

   You def need an appt. I showed up at meps on a date my recruiter told me to go but when I showed up I was told I wasn’t on the list and couldn’t process. I was told if I was enlisted I could get away with a walk in but officers needed an appt. I had ...

   Yeah sometimes the docs in meps can be a bit of a douche. My doc wasn’t exactly all sparkles and rainbows, failed meps my first time and the doc wasn’t very kind about it ? Did you check with your recruiter about remaining clinical nursing spots? I w...

   Welcome! And yup, got MEPS done last summer. I went through the waiting game last board, so hoping 2nd time is easier. Thankfully I don't have to wait until next Sept to reapply so I'm grateful.

   2nd attempt, welp. At least my application - for the most part - stays the same.

    MasalaC replied to Gwynn0918's topic in Government

    Hey I'll give my 2 cents since I've went/going through the process for both AF and Navy. Make sure you're in a specialty you enjoy. Yes, Navy love them dat ICU experience, but do it because you want to, not because it'll make you more competitive. ...

    Thanks!! Imma soak in this feeling of failure for a little bit (what was wrong with my application, sob) and start fresh tomorrow. Here's to another year...... I guess no news of OTS date? If I was selected, I would be ready to go asap. Hopefully y'a...

    Did they tell yall when you’re going to TFOT/OTS or just you were selected? Just so I know if they want you to start Feb vs June, timing wise. Less than a yr experience. I is noob with a non-critical care specialty so that’s probs why AF was like nah...

    I thought I had a chance though! Not even waitlisted, just straight up not selected. Oh man, to wait another whole year I dunno how yall did it. When do you guys have OTS? Did they tell you your duty station as well?
