Well earlier today when I had just got back to the house from doing a morning workout, I got the call to take the FIT test on Monday. Progress is good. Though its crazy was told they have to get them done in the next 5 days. But thats something that I have also seem on other threads on other forms as well. So hope the call comes soon. I know its probably going to be cold and rainy (or light snow) come monday but oh well. I'M READY!!!!!!

I got word today that another RPer rocked the USMS fit test out today, getting "superior" in everything but the flexibility.

Switch, I'd say that just goes to show how bad that person really wanted it.

Good work, bluelightzgrl, the faster you run, the less you are out in the frigid weather! Sort of an incentive.
Good luck to you, DarcKnight. Let's see if you can beat bluelightzgrl's scores."Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.

Quick Question
Quick question: I attended the one of the regional FCIP info sessions. I just received an email saying that I may send an email on a certain date to schedule an interview; however, interview slots are limited and I cannot schedule until midnight of the set date. My question is this: is scheduling an interview as competitive as getting into the info session?

LOL, that was my exact thoughts... 12 minutes out here, just 12 minutes and you are back in a warm vehicle!!
Good luck DarcKnight! Hope the weather is better for you than what I had.
My interview letter said the same thing. I called about 2pm on the first day I could schedule and got a slot without any problems. When I got to the interview, there was about 10 other people scheduled at the same time as I was. There was also about another 10 scheduled and hour later and again two hours later. From what I gathered they did this for 3 or 4 days. Originally Posted by chief2009

Congrats to all of those who have passed the FIT test so far! It seems that quite a few people for Region II have received the call for this test. I also took the FIT this past week and passed. Does it happen often where someone makes it this far in the process and never receives the call for FLETC?
