It’s killing me!10 Days until the real waiting begins.
I’m not expecting results until after Christmas but at least it’s something knowing a decision is being made soon.10 Days until the real waiting begins.
Should be before that I would think. My OR texted me that results are generally released 4-6 weeks after the board convenes.I’m not expecting results until after Christmas but at least it’s something knowing a decision is being made soon.
That's what my OR told me, depends on the board too.
What really helps me is looking forward to small tasks throughout the week and moving on to the next little thing. Try not to think so far in advance and it helps. I.E. I'll be flying Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, Friday is a community project, next week Wednesday is a Midterm, etc. Break up the large task of a lengthy wait into a bunch of little wait periods and it's an easier task to overcome mentally.It’s killing me!
The May 25 board was exactly three weeks for us to get the results. I think 4-6 is a safe bet. Everyone is either selected or not selected the day the board convenes. Every day past that is administrative time to get the results out to the recruiters/applicants.My OR told me less than a month to hear back but that seems optimistic. My guess is 4-6 weeks.
I hear elderly people do the same thing regarding small task, although their task are different than yours.What really helps me is looking forward to small tasks throughout the week and moving on to the next little thing. Try not to think so far in advance and it helps.
That's funny, old people and the Navy SEALS have really figured something out then lol.I hear elderly people do the same thing regarding small task, although their task are different than yours.
etc....... lol
- wake up and be happy that alive for one more day.
- attempt to get out of bed
- get out of bed
In all seriousness what you do by setting small task and accomplishing them is a great way to get things done and I do the same thing in my daily life.
A deadline to send out results? That would make sense. I figure it’s a lot happening either way with the election and holidays happening.Almost positive there is a deadline for the board and I’m like 99 percent sure it lands before Christmas

When I was in Air Force basic training that’s what we did. “We just have to make it to the next meal” was my flights words of encouragement haha. Thankfully after a few weeks of the routine it’s easier, but getting thrown into this sort of environment is going to take baby steps at first.I like that. I feel like that will be just as applicable at OCS. Cutting up the daunting days into segments. Whether its the next task of the day or jumping from meal to meal.
