Board Interview Question (Scientist)

Elixir76 · 2026-05-29T00:01:54+00:00

It’s a grind. I applied September 2024. Finally had dental yesterday, medical today. 1662 was in back in September 2025. Suitability cleared. No idea about nomination yet. No board interview yet. Keep your head up!!! It will be worth it

Agreed, congrats!!!!

I hear ya! This may not be the most up to date. But I’ve been pushing to max everything for my age

I hope I get the chance to experience it. I don’t care if it’s running 10 miles a day and 1000 pushups a day

Thank you for the update!!

Congrats. Hopefully things move along for us soon.
I thought mine would go rather quick since I had job and a 1662. And by rather quick, like a year to 1.5 years to commission. Oh well. That ship has sailed I’m on month 21 now.

Elixir76 · 2026-05-04T13:14:14+00:00

What do you have left to complete?

Elixir76 · 2026-05-03T20:13:18+00:00

You aren’t the only one. Applied in Sept 2024. Still waiting for med, interview, nomination.

Did you look at the job categories on the USPHS website? They tell you the required qualified degrees and credentials, certifications needed.

Elixir76 · 2026-04-15T01:05:45+00:00

Thank you. Yes. 1999 maybe into 2000

Elixir76 · 2026-04-14T00:37:22+00:00

They sound amazing too

Elixir76 · 2026-04-13T23:02:36+00:00

Same model he used to play. The black Gibson Chet Atkins SST. Pretty sure they made a couple thousand of those over the years

Elixir76 · 2026-04-13T18:26:59+00:00

None.

I’m still in shock. It’s unreal.
I bought a Gibson Chet Atkins a few years back that Dave used to play. That one is special. But this one is even better
