Board went well May 5th, no official results yet, packet supposed to go up to USAREC today, recruiter not responding. Should I be worried?
Hey everyone, looking for some perspective from those who’ve been through this. I had my OCS battalion board on May 5th and it genuinely felt like it went really well. The board was reacting positively to my answers in real time, saying things like “great answers” and “wow I really like that.” So I do really feel like I was recommended, but of course I don’t know for sure since official results haven’t been released yet.
Today, May 8th, was supposed to be the day my packet gets pushed up to USAREC. I still haven’t heard official board results, and my recruiter hasn’t responded to my latest check-in. I’ve tried messaging and calling and haven’t gotten through yet.
I’m trying not to be too impatient and I trust that my recruiter knows what he’s doing way more than I do, but the silence today specifically is making me anxious because of the deadline. Is no news at this point normal three business days after the board? Should I just assume silence means my packet got pushed up and things are moving? Or should I be following up more aggressively? Any perspective from people who’ve been through this part of the process would help me a lot. Thanks in advance.
