So my husband didn't make it again so now we need to know if you're an E6 and your 20 year retirement is the end of this November, PLUS you're in a higher tenure waiver that takes you to March 2018... Are you eligible to take the exam one more time?  I know technically you're not eligible on a waiver BUT is it true that if you're eligible anytime between this October 2016 to the next October 2017 that entitles you to take it again? 

Thanks and congrats to all who got the S this year.

I would imagine if the waiver goes to March 2018 then he should be able to take the 2017 test. since he will have enough time on his contract for the whole board process for 2017.

This morning I am sorry to say my name was not called out. I have one more look, then I get to retire.

We had three selected. one first timer and 2 3rd timers.

Best of a luck to those still waiting.

Same boat for me.  I retire June 18 so next year is my last test cycle.  I won't find out who made it until I go to work in little over an hour.

Anyone have any word on NIOC Maryland?  I just transfered there and I haven't heard anything yet, one way or the other.

I've only heard of 1 person so far that made it.  I haven't been given word either way yet.

Yes, if he is in until March 2018, he's good to go. In order to be eligible you have still to be on Active Duty as of 1 September of the year you take the exam.

This freaking sucks.  At least tell us one way or the other.  I don't want to have to wait and find out by seeing the "N" on my profile sheet tomorrow.

Kind of wish they would have just gotten us all together to announce.

Yes!  That's how they do it at NIOC Hawaii.

[Guest HAZEGREY1775]

I got that "S".. ITC(SEL)!!!!

[Guest AlohaChicken]

5pm has come and still no word from my husband... he has NEVER stayed at work this late in the 7 months he has been at this command, especially the day after duty. Should I see this as a good sign?

I would honestly wait until he contacts you.

[Guest NavyChic]

I received the "N" today, first time up and I'm early in my career, so I'm okay but I still wish I could've made.                      Going through the this whole process I can say I don't like how the COC doesn't tell those who don't make it, we just find out we didn't make it because we haven't heard anything or someone tells us who all made it.

That's exactly what I keep bringing up, not good leadership too.

[Guest Boats_Petey]

For everyone who's name was not called. Do not forget to check your BOL tomorrow. H's have been known to appear.

[Guest MA1P49]

Been lurking for a couple of weeks and thought I would make an account.  This forum has been a wealth of information, and I wish I would have found it sooner!  Still waiting for results here in Japan, only 0638.  Good luck to all, and congrats to those selected!

Wouldn't the triads get that info also?

[Guest AlohaChicken]

He made it!

He had me going too, came home and told me all about his friends who picked up and how many were made on the ship and how pissed he was he had to stay late to do a PA setup. FIVE MINUTES of me feeling terrible for him.

Then he tells me he's messed with me long enough. So excited and proud of him!!

[Guest navyordie123]

Tick tock tick tock tick tock still waiting.....

All board eligible FCPOs will show in TRIAD access with a S, N, or H next to that person's name. The command would already see the H and have to begin working on getting the information fixed.

 

Ahh ok. I got told to check BOL anyways. No worries. Again congrats to all who got the "S"

[Guest Admin_warrior]

So my old command doesn't have my information. I call my sponsor and he "thinks" I didn't make it but he isnt sure. Tried contacting My new chief and she will not or has not contacted me about getting a S or N. Sorry about venting just frustrated, been waiting since 8 today(west coast) and don't know anything while on PCS leave.

I'm in the same boat as you, I know nothing but hopefully in the next hour. 

[Guest Boats_Petey]

well just checked my Prims. Its not showing my med waiver for the last PRT now. Just lists my BCA and the other portion as incomplete. It was in there before the board but now its not. I kinda wanna bang my head on a wall now for not triple checking. Might as well start working on resumes.

[Guest HMSFIDC]

Didn't get a "s" this year, but still congratulations to all who made and best of luck during your transition into Chief Petty Officers!

[Guest IT_wun(IW/SCW/SW/AW)]

God is good... I finally joined this about a week ago after lurking around for about the last 2 cycles.

I got the coveted "S" today.  I'm so grateful as this was my second time up.

First let me start by saying this....for those that weren't selected this is NOT the time to give up or throw in the towel. I've been there and I know how it feels... Not too good...but you can either let life happen to you....or you can get up and make life happen for you!!  This is the time to GRIND!! Starting with preparation for the exam in January. Don't let your Sailors see you down. They feed off your energy and if they see you get back up after you fall, chances are they will do the same. Utilize the resources available. Big navy makes this easy, you have free access to all members who sat your rating panel. CONTACT them! No they can't tell you why you weren't selected but you can certainly ask for guidance and advice to help you remain competitive in your perspective rating. They truly want to help and are standing by to assist.  I did it and trust me it works.  They are just as eager to see you succeed as much as you want to succeed for yourself!

Congrats to all those who were selected!!! God bless and let's push through the next SIX weeks

Later on tonight I will need to do a server upgrade and I will be turning off forum registration. If you want to set up an account please do so soon.

[Guest sk32004toLSC]

I got the "S" today.  I would like to thank everyone on hear for all of the great knowledge that is shared amongst us.
