My DS took an opportunity by the NJ regional staff to take his CFA in Livingston this past Sunday. Leave it to my son to forget his wallet though I asked him 10 times before we left if he had everything he needed. Albeit he took it once given by his HS athletic director he wants to keep taking...

The reason I'm asking is that my son normally wears a suit or blazer etc depending on the formality of the event he is attending. In this case he will be having a college info session as well as tour at the Univ Delaware then after that off the meet for his interview. He is unsure if the...

DS was told DD2492 kicks the process off. DS statement to me and I can see his point was dad they don't ask for my address on the form. Form Item #5 is Exam facility or Examiner Address is he supposed to determine that. Or do they somehow link this first form to his account he setup on the...

Now that my DS has applied for SLE I guess I'm curious why they have the two week options in the heart of either the review time for finals or finals themselves. It almost makes me want to tell him he should really thing about that decision should he be accepted. Especially since our...

How did it go and what way the panel like.

If from NJ 12 even better.

Suggestions on resume. Is there a style like chronological that is liked or is it just capture as much as possible and ( eliminate all spelling issues :) ) My DS is a junior and gathering his past 3 years of STUFF he has been doing and asked me to ask this question.

my DS is a junior so its all right around the corner for him. Interested in anyone from NJ-12 and how its gone for you.

Does anyone have or seen or have a link that shows the demographic mix for acceptance by congressional district / MOC and also the quantities by state getting acceptance off the NWL.

We all know getting into WP is very difficult and from New Jersey its more than super competitive but when the field force rep tells a room full of kids interested from NJ with its competition you need to be a genius its down right sucks. But Hey you might as well set the record straight up front.

IS their a website or something that shows the number of requests for nominations with NJ's congressional districts. Looking to understand the local demand.
