i was accepted to the Denton Fall 2017 cohort. Im just concerned with how much time is required for each class. Do we meet up with study groups or just wing it on our own?

Hello, I am brand new to this thread so I had a couple of questions: I started my Navy Reserve Nurse application last october (in Texas) and the review board is still processing my application. My application is a little different than other in that I have been an OPA-C for 6 years and a BSN for 2 years. I am not sure what rank they will bring me in at and what they will have me doing since I First assist in the OR now.(I drape, assist the surgeon intraoperative, suture, and put the dressing on). I am being brought in as a peri op nurse but my recruiter, and 2 interview have told me that my skills will be utilized more intraoperative since they are always in need of a good pair of hands who know what the procedure is. I am mainly in ortho/trauma but have done some OB/GYN. My questions are: 1. What will my duties be? 2. Likelyhood of deployment? Does that mean overseas or stateside? 3. Being a male OR nurse, what are my chances of advancing quickly as an officer? 4. What will drill weekend be like? Is it just admin stuff or will i be working with corpsman in trying to teach others?

I haven't seen anything. I've looked since I applied to the Navy reserve nurse corps last October and still waiting on the review board. I'm trying to gain insight also.
