Our DD is waiting on pins and needles. I've been reading this forum for months (very, very helpful, thank you to everyone taking the time to post their experiences!) so I have some (limited, I'm sure) idea of how the process goes. DD is a senior in high school applying for the first time. She is fully qualified, best I can tell (I know she is medically qualified and did her PFT a few months ago, portal just says candidate/complete). She has a congressional and senate nomination. The only issue is, I don't know how to help her not stress over this! I've told her that as long as she hasn't heard 'no' yet, she still has a chance, but she is still super nervous.
For those of you who have been through this already, how did you help your child (or yourself if you are the candidate/appointee/cadet) learn to relax through this process?
