I don't know what you mean by traditionally but if you went through the PEPC then you should give them a call because i just called them today and they gave me a date for Dec 12

Yeah, anyone have a good definition of traditional vs non-trad route?

AirborneJFO Senior Member Westbury, NY

For me....Traditional:

-Receive TOL 1 July.
-No PEPC, though I was asked to go to the August 09 one in Atlanta.
-Interview at assigned facility in the TOL (12 July).
-MMPI-2, Physical, Drug Screen, and SF-85P/86 completed within 5-10 days of receiving TOL.

So is the traditional route "quicker" (scoff) ?

I'd say PEPC is faster. The people I interviewed with at N90 said PEPC was probably on average a better route to go.

It's all relative. If your region's processing center is fast for traditional people, you could be done quick.

In traditional process:

-You could have some quack doctor who doesn't send out the physical results because its sitting in a stack of dusty folders and doesn't need you to pull down your pants because its a government contract and he knows you don't care and its easy money for him. He may also give you a hearing test in a busy office setting and fix the results just to check the block.

-For the drug screen you could've done it in an office that doubles as a pet store back room and those people may not care how fast it gets sent out. They got a government contract to piss you and make money from it because they have a piece of paper that says they can.

-The MMPI-2 is cut and dry and so is the SF-85P/86.
