I applied to the 70D board on 8/11/19 and the my AMEDD recruiter told me that the board approved my packet and now I am in the Order of merit list. What this means and how this process works? how long it will take me to commissioned ? Its better to wait or apply for another AOC ( e.g. 66H)?

Unless you are a med-surgical nurse as well as a IT specialist, you won’t be able to do 66H. That’s also a different process through your AMEDD recruiter.

You don’t really have a choice but to wait as SSG (Join to see) mentioned, you were approved by the board, but not in time to fill a vacancy for the fiscal year slots.

Thank sir ! I applied in November and I am in waiting list , that’s mean all the open slots are filled within one month as this fiscal still have 9 months to finish. When I applied my recruiter said they have 70 slots available. So that mean now I have wait for an year till next fiscal year? I know I am asking a lot of question but I need few clarification

1LT (Join to see) it just means that the slots were filled. If you're on the OML (order of Merit List) then you are basically on the waitlist for a FY20 Slot. If none are available, you can go back up for review for FY21 slots. I would recommend working on your packet for that around August next year.

Additionally, I recommend trying for 70B first. The Army likes to recruit 70Bs and then train them to become 70Ds a few years into their careers.

CPT (Join to see) - so i can still be on 70D OML and apply for 70B without withdrawing 70D , do we need to submit scroll back to congress and send CV to 70B for CV or i can directly apply for January board.

1LT (Join to see) you'll want to talk to your AMEDD Recruiter on that process...but there are "usually" more slots for 70B than 70D.

If you are on the OML you didn’t get selected for a commissioning.
