How long you had to prepare for the promotion board?

I got to a new unit 3 weeks ago.
2 weeks ago I was told I'm going to the promotion board. I'm a bit nervous because it's a lot of information and I don't feel ready since it's only 2 weeks to prepare. I've never even thought of being promoted to Sgt, I just was doing my 4 years and out but now I have to go to the board.

Even if you totally blow it at the very the very least you will have information about what is to be expected the next go around.

You're required to attend the promotion board once you hit your primary zone, that's an Army Regulation. You don't have to be selected. You don't have to do well. You can keep going back every month if you want to. If you just want to stay a SPC go in there and tell that to the board, I guarantee they will oblige you and not recommend you for promotion. No need to stress about anything
