Make sure you set realistic goals for yourself to complete the application process and stay committed. Best of luck.

I was told that he would let me know about the dates when he knew. But the next board date is 5 January.

When boards and such meet are going to be outside of your recruiter&#39;s control. What you can do is talk to your recruiter about taking an ASVAB. Typically if you score very high, recruiters will want to help you get in a bit harder. When I joined, I took my test and they really wanted to put me in, but I was taking my time to make sure it was the right move for me, so I did the MEPS portion separately, before committing to any contracts. They even worked hard to push a waiver through so I could enter sooner, though due to a paperwork snafu I was delayed a couple of weeks.<br />Not very much is likely to get done during these few weeks, so keep in touch with your recruiter with a phone call once a week or so would be my suggestion at this point.
