Wow, what a "contrast" on the two previous experiences above.

So, I think it is safe to say that both applications hit the CFRC at relatively the same time but one person waited "one" week for CFAT while the other has to wait nearly two months.....  :-(

 

[BYFROMSCHOOL]

Yeah DAA, tell me about it. I suppose it has to do with the difference in trade selection. However, I have seen examples in this thread of Infantry NCM applications from other CFRCs moving faster than mine. I don't have any doubt in my RC though, and hope that things pick up now that testing has been scheduled.

Contrast yeah, but I'm hanging in there just fine. I have been checking this thread almost daily since I joined the forum. Besides getting my hopes up and down, it has helped pass the time.

 

[d_edwards]

Wish my application zipped along like that.  But at least it is going well for someone,  wish it was the rule rather than the exception
Like some others checking for updates on these boards , it is turning into a bit of an obsession.   
Toughest part is when I am in job interviews, trying to sell myself and convince a potential employer why they should invest in me, when I have one foot out the door before I even start.

I asked yesterday and AES OP was still open, however I did go through the extra medical requirements already. Hoping that maybe I'm still in time for AES OP. Cross fingers now.
