What is the selection process like for Flight Medic training?

Good evening, all. I am looking to find out if anyone here has recently went to Flight Medic training. I am looking at applying for the F2 program. I realize I would have to attend F3 training at Rucker prior to going. As I am preparing my packet, I am wondering, about how long it took everyone to hear back as to whether or not they got picked up for it, and how much time was between the acceptance and the time that they reported. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Here is a list of RallyPoint members who have attended the Army Flight Medic Course... I'm sure that if you connect with some of them, they would be glad to help further. Or perhaps they can post here?

SMSgt Minister Gerald A. Thomas , the issue is that I am on a small installation . The flight medics who are here, are all f3 (not paramedics). However the army is currently pushing towards all flight medics being pramedic certified. The new asi F2 involves getting you national paramedic certification as well as a national critical care flight paramedic certification.

Are you still looking for information on it? I'm here at Ft. Sam for the Critical Care Flight Paramedic program. It is F2 then F3 at Rucker. Go to this feed and read the information I posted or message me. https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/flight-paramedics-needed-68w-e-4-or-e-5?urlhash=754991

As I understand, you will first PCS to Joint Base San Antonio to attend the Paramedic training, listed in ATRRS as 300-F1. You then attend Critical Care Paramedic, 300-F2, also at JBSA. You then go TDY en route to Rucker for the Aviation Crewmember course, which is 300-F6, I believe.
