I enlisted and I still haven't received any info on where & what time will it take place. It depends on your assignment. YOu should get a yellow card in the mail with all that info...it's different for everyone depending on where you live and how full the other times/places are. If you don't get it by tomorrow go down town and see DCAS and get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duelingdragons Posted June 2, 2009 Share #380 Posted June 2, 2009 I got 3:30 at Grace Dodge.. whew. So happy its not a night session. Hopefully I can get out in 2 hours like I did for the C/R test. (1.5 of those 2 hours being waiting to go to my classroom, etc.) Do you think I can get away with wearing shorts? I'm assuming nobody will care.

It's random plus due to the amount of people that filed for this exam, there is the issue of fitting everyone in. Now the issue regarding the open exam notice is going to be something that you will have to discuss with the post master at your local post office. My exam notice was sealed when I got it.

KenHeines Posted June 4, 2009 Share #395 Posted June 4, 2009 I guess its pretty safe to assume that my ticket isn't coming. So just a quick question; whats the address that I have to go to exactly, to pick it up in person? Do I need to bring anything special with me other than, I assume, I.D. and a copy of the receipt of purchase? I checked through the tread but didn't find an answer, so sorry if I'm reasking the same question over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Harley Posted June 4, 2009 Share #396 Posted June 4, 2009 Say you got the stomach flu and that you treated it yourself. This used to work in the past. I had a job for an insurance company and when you called in sick, they would tell you to come in anyway and see the nurse on staff! Seeing that he works for a medical institution, I would like to know how they would deal with that call. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexAveExp5 Posted June 4, 2009 Share #397 Posted June 4, 2009 oh man, i just answered this on page 39!

You will just have to interpret the information they give you correctly and give the right response.
