Hope you don‘t mind, but I looked back at some of your posts. Since you seemed to be in a similar situation as me, I thought maybe your posts would provide me with some info. Turns out we are in very similar spots - I am married, one kid, another due at end of March.
Anyway, I was reading some of your comments re: the selection board last Dec. What do you know about the one in May? I‘m driving myself crazy (typical) trying to imagine who I will be up against in the selection process. I know my background, credentials, references, med, PT, etc. are solid, but until I get that phone call I am like a kid on a Christmas Eve that never ends. Has your recruiting officer given you any idea of the number of spots available vs. number of applicants expected?
