Check your email. I just received my email notification to self-schedule. It should be noted that the participant selects when they will take the logic test and WD and then OPM will automatically schedule the SI for the next day.

That's either gutsy or generous of you. I should have noted (but I was so excited and wanted to alert others) that the self-scheduling "window" doesn't open until 8/31.

Well, that certainly got the adrenaline flowing on a tiring end-of-the-month Friday afternoon.

Any idea of the dates to test on? I was wondering the same. Perhaps that will be revealed when we log in on 8/31to self-schedule?

Nothing in the email indicated dates---just stated you have the chance to self schedule from 8/31 to 9/11. One would presume this means the testing date choices likely are for dates starting after 9/11 (just a wild guess though).

Advice needed. We will be getting interview times the day before the interview and won't know until then if we might be the last interview of the day. What is the earliest flight you would schedule out of Reagan, allowing a safe cushion to arrive there from the interview site?

im guessing 8 or 9 pm to keep it safe. hoping someone else pipes in. dont rule out taking metro to Reagan. it wont be fun but if traffic is backed up, it could be quicker to take metro.
and again, i hope DC locals pipe in. but i would strongly suggest you schedule WD m-w if you can. you don;'t want to try to get out of DC on a Friday afternoon/evening.

I clicked on the link hoping to see dates - link is not open yet, so no dates. I had assumed testing would be in the next fiscal year, after October 31, but someone else suggested the opposite. It also occurs to me there may be a limited number of openings on each testing date available. They may plan up to 10 people a day or so in a smaller venue than in the past. Based on the traffic on this site, is this August 14 group a lot smaller than other groups? For example was there a lot more traffic back in 2013 for the group going to DC for testing?

avril, fiscal year actually ends Sept 30, not October 31/
and did anyone other than me try to self-schedule already cause they were not paying attention that the window to schedule opens on August 31st? in my defense, i had just gotten my rather talkative mother off the phone so my brain was a tad frazzled at the time. Still, hope my eye for detail is up and running again by the testing dates(mental note, send mom's calls to voice mail right before wd test). at least i noted there was only a 2 week window to sign up for this.....
and my lsat prep book awaits so i may be departing the board(for the rest of day) soon. Congrats to those getting and about to get offers and i imagine i will see some fellow testers in DC. All the best to everyone.

Not sure this group will be that large, at least by the initial poll responses, which at this point has only 11 people going forward

Also, the e-mail example was for October 5th or 6th, so I am guessing we will be self-scheduling (ss from here on out) for the month of October, more or less.
