    Tina73RN replied to IowaRNBSN's topic in Government, Military

  5. AF July 2011 Boards

    Tina73RN replied to IowaRNBSN's topic in Government, Military

    To my understanding about the last board: if you were not selected as a selectee or an alternate spot then you were a "non-select". Sounds like you and I were in the same boat last fall. Lets cross...

  9. AF July 2011 Boards

    Tina73RN replied to IowaRNBSN's topic in Government, Military

    I was told last fall I had a great chance...I was later told I was a non-select most likely due to possitions available. I was told 200 applicants last fall and only 11 spots, plus I imagine the...

    Tina73RN replied to IowaRNBSN's topic in Government, Military

    Tina73RN replied to Punkygrl's topic in General Nursing

  22. Air Force Reserve VS Active Duty Air Force

    Tina73RN replied to IowaRNBSN's topic in Government, Military

    I just wrote a private message to you. I gave you my email, too. I do think you're making the right choice to get a way in . From what I've seen it's very tough to get in otherwise. Talk

  23. Air Force Reserve VS Active Duty Air Force

    Tina73RN replied to IowaRNBSN's topic in Government, Military
