[Guest ADCS*VFA]

Do you ever review the application you submitted and start to doubt yourself, doubt that you have a chance?  Yeah that is happening as I type.

I am assuming you applied for 733X?  If so, and you'd  like me to scrub through your application, I would be more than happy to.  Send me a message and ill give you my email address on the side.  I can help confirm your concerns, if you'd like, or perhaps put them to rest!

Yeah, I am a prior nuke and among other things a bit OCD. I have reviewed my package at least 50 times since submission. It never looks better, that's for sure.

Haha I thought I was the only one. I did it as recent as of last week.

[Guest ADCS*VFA]

Crazy, because you start to think that "hey I know I didn't make it, but I just want to know so I can move on with my life until next time".

I am ready to move on from this chapter whether selected or not. I need to be able find something else to focus on.

[Guest ADCS*VFA]

This is more nerve wrecking than the CPO results.  At least with getting selected for CPO you find out in Aug and put the uniform on in September.  With this, OMG, you apply OCT.1st and can potentially put it on Sept 30th two years later. Lol!

I was very confident with those results for some reason... Now it’s like ehhhhhhhh...

I’ve reread the precepts over and over, my evaluations over and over, convening letter over and over, member ships list, in-service procurement slide, old results, etc etc etc! If I had my pig here with me in Bahrain, I would be reading it over and over like I do when I’m in Mayport... 

I just wanna know if I made the cut so I can quit growing these dang grey hairs by the hour!

I'm about to get off from work in about an hour and will be away from the ability to check my bol. I'll just check in here from time to time tonight to see what's up. If you guys say something showed up in your BOL I might just drive the 45 mins back just to check.

On a side note maybe I'll take that sabbatical that they're offering and take my "Golden Ticket" have a 6 month vacay and come back and try it again lol.

Do you not have CAC reader capability on your personal laptop/computer?

It’s a bit bittersweet... After religiously checking every day for 2 weeks, I’m not too sure what I’ll do with my time when we finally get the results. It’s my husbands first time submitting and I have to say, this waiting game is insane.

Best of luck to everyone!

You won’t need BOL...

I'll need it to check my status if that updates before the NAVADMIN is released won't I?

[Guest Mustang6235]

The last three years BOL has updated AFTER the NAVADMIN release. I’ve followed this board for three years, and have yet to see someone post they received BOL results before the public release.

They are near simultaneous, but the NAVADMIN is generally available first.

The last two years it has been posted here from by someone who got it through OIX  or general message traffic before BOL was updated

I'm in Radio checking message traffic every fifteen minutes or so. If it's not out by noon-ish EST then I'm thinking today is a no-go.

I've been told to usually give it until 1300CST.  I guess it just depends.  The selection results have been released pretty late in the past.

[Guest Intel]

Not that it matters.  As soon as someone gets a whiff of results, BOL and NPC will get swamped and no one will be able to access it.

[Guest Mustang6235]

Historically, it’s been about 1100 CST. 

I’m giving it 40 more minutes before I move on to tomorrow, although I doubt there’s a certain time it has to be released. 

[Guest FireNozzle]

The room is getting full hope there out soon! Hope today if not I guess we will have another day of waiting!

My first application, not so much.  These last two have been pretty brutal though.  From October 1st until the day results are released, I pick it completely apart.
