Results of the FSOA

Just a brief note to let those who are waiting to hear know that I passed the Foreign Service Oral Assessment today. It was one INTENSE experience and that is ALL I am going to say for now. Happy it is over, and now prepping for my Russian phone exam. I am exhausted. More tomorrow.

    Thank you! Let's see how long it takes to actually enter FSI on my own.

    Congrats!! I'm in much the same situation - taking the OA in October (and hopefully the Russian phone test too!), but if I don't pass, I'll be going along as the wife. During your OA, did you happen to mention that you are signed up for FS life regardless of passing? I'm wondering if that's a positive or negative in the eyes of the panel??

    Megan, I was sort of cautioned not to--I didn't want them to think my only reason to join was that, because it wasn't. So, I never mentioned it. Good luck to you, it is quite the day.
