Hi all, I just wanted share my process with SDSO and what I have had to do.
I first took the written test in June of 07. Met with BI a few weeks later and he conducted background. Something pops up in my finances, I owe $1,500 to a cell phone company from when my ex-girlfriend ran the bill up and split. So i miss the upcoming academy because I have to pay off that debt which takes me 3 months!.
Hooray I get to move on to CVSA/Interview/MED/Psych. I pass everything except my freaking hearing test. Turns out I had meningitis as a baby and lost a little hearing. So i now i have to take the hearing test with a hearing aid ( and miss the current academy). I save up another $1,500 to pay for the hearing aid. I pass thankfully.
Now im in right?. Nope. Turns out during all of this my certification had expired so i had to retake the written and hope to get my scores back before the 29th. lol. Which I did.
so after over $3,000 spent and alot of time as well, I finally get slotted for the 29th class for SDSO!
I just wanted to let people know that no matter what gets thrown at you, you have to make a choice and deal with it. Ive learned that things DO NOT go as planned, and how you handle it shows alot. So to any of you who feel down or don't think your process is going well, just keep your head up and fight for what you want!
