Does anybody know the maximum amount of marijuana uses before they won't let someone in? I am in the same boat, I reported two uses on my dodmerb form and two other times completely slipped my mind until a buddy brought them up. I want to be completely honest on sf86, but I am wondering if 4...

But in all honesty, is 4 times usage 3 years ago Considered too many for a security clearance as an officer? I've been told that they don't care so much what you do as long as you are honest, but then I've also heard more than 2-3 times will disqualify you.

Also, is 4 times too many?

Okay. Would writing it on the sf86 form cause problems with dodmerb since the information that I gave them on my dodmerb form wasn't as accurate as possible?

Okay! Should I write an explanation in the remarks section of sf86 regarding this issue?

So I saw a post in the naval academy thread that got me wondering. On the dodmerb application, when filling out past marijuana use I put down 2 times. I have been appointed, and looking at the drug section of security form 86 has got me nervous. I talked with some past friends that reminded me...

So after graduation, are you more likely to be based on land or spend more time out at sea, or is it equal? How much time will you have to spend time with family? I know it will depend on what you do, but what is average? Thanks

Absolutely not! When filling out the candidate activites record it said that I should predict activites 12th grade year. I recently found out that I would not be a track captain as I previously expected, due to a change in coaching.

What about changes in Candidate activities record? Such as not being a captain when previously expected?

Who do they contact for the verification? I can't imagine they contact each coach/leader/oversee-er individually! Probably our guidance councilor that we put down then, right?

Will my application have to go back in front of the admissions board?

I am happy to say I received an appointment to the USNA this past month. When filling out the candidate activities record, I anticipated I would letter in football senior year. I am a co captain of the team and the form said I should anticipate events that occur 12th grade year. If I report that...

This whole summer I spent practicing science. Just checked my score using the act early glitch today, and found that my science was 27, again. It seems as if my studying doesn't pay off. I will continue to do so, but I don't expect to raise any of my scores anymore. Would the 27s really sink me...
