My son has been ready and waiting for the NASS application for months. He filled out the application as soon as it was posted.
I've been reading this site for several months now. Assuming my son will be deemed an official candidate, I have a better understanding about the application process, and all the trials, tribulations (and excitement) that, hopefully, we'll be going through in 2014.
Congratulations to all the BFE recipients, and good luck for all who anxiously await. You're all truly blessed to have made it this far.
Thank you all for your insight.
