Charlien24 Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 May be the wrong thread for this but did anyone else on the May Board not have to turn in their handwritten narrative? I was looking at my application and the typed narrative was listed in the attached documents in Block 11, but not the handwritten. I was wondering if they took this out as a requirement? 1 Quote

No, it is not a requirement anymore. I think even for the OCS board you don't have to do it anymore either. 3 Quote
Abazi21 Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 Ragnar I am curious how bad your hearing was. Mine is pretty messed up. I have 60s under certain frequencies.

Ragnar Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 Ragnar I am curious how bad your hearing was. Mine is pretty messed up. I have 60s under certain frequencies. My left ear hearing is not horribly bad but it requires me to have a permanent profile and I had to get a waiver for it 1 Quote
Abazi21 Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 Thanks for the reply. Good luck with the boarding process. My left ear hearing is not horribly bad but it requires me to have a permanent profile and I had to get a waiver for it Quote

future_aviator Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Unfortunately not making it to May board. WOSM says August it is! More time to get better Quote
Jlopez13 Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Unfortunately not making it to May board. WOSM says August it is! More time to get better next board is July 15th Quote
Jlopez13 Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 Good luck everyone! Not sure if my package was squeezed into this board but wish everyone the best. Quote
Charlien24 Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 Haha this wait is agonizing! At least I had finals and graduation to take my mind off selection for a while, but now i'm sitting in the same boat as everyone else refreshing this page well over 50 times a day knowing that the results won't be posted for at least a few days. Weren't the March Board results posted the same Thursday as the board for civilians? 1 Quote
Richie88 Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 Good luck everyone! Not sure if my package was squeezed into this board but wish everyone the best.From my understanding, unless they told you otherwise your packet should be at this board. If I'm wrong someone please correct me. Quote

Weren't the March Board results posted the same Thursday as the board for civilians? Yes civilians got the results on Thursday for the last board. However it could always be different this time. Some of us who are on our second look have a lot riding on this board, and I am pretty nervous. I am at least comfortable knowing that I did absolutely everything I possible could to improve my packet. 1 Quote
Jrok14 Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 Good luck all! I'm getting eye surgery on my left eye in a couple weeks so fingers crossed all goes well and I'll be on either the September or November board. 1 Quote

Cerberus Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 Civilian here. I am so nervous! I want to be selected so badly! I have been doing PT 6-7 days a week since December 2017 to get in shape, and started building my packet December 2018. It has been such a long process and I am dying to see the results. 1 Quote

What were all your stats? You can see how they line up with those selected in boards before. Quote

Therious Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 All is quite on the May Board Front! I say we start a pool. Closest person to the minute when the results drop wins bragging rights as excellent guesser! I'll start by optimistically saying 15th May 2300 z time Quote
