Just got the PARB email today. Had to retake MMPI twice but interview with the psych went great. So confused. Had another buddy who also had to retake the MMPI who had a great convo with his Psych and said it went well too. He also got the PARB email. Interview was today 11/23. Any idea when next board meets? Do they still continue doing the background/pria in the meantime so I can get a classdate ASAP?

Thats the thing, how do you really know it went great? They could be smiling and nodding and it seems like both sides are having a nice back and forth conversation, but in reality they are destroying you on their clip board as they jot down notes and irregularities. I thought my shrink talk went ok too, but off to the PARB I went. Hired though thankfully. I remember she asked me what my favorite alcoholic drink was, and I answered WAY too fast on that one. That was probably what got me flagged. Should have given that answer a few more potatoes before blurting it out!!
I wasn't flagged, for the record. I didn't get asked any alcohol questions though, in fairness to you

Same thing happened to me. Am in the PRB purgatory. I answered yes to "have you ever drank to excess" or something like that. She asked me about it and I just said yeah in college 20 years ago I'm sure there were times I drank a bit too much. Now 3 drinks in night feels like too much the next day, haha. If anything it means I'm a lightweight now, not that I have a drinking problem. The whole process is really handled poorly in my humble opinion. Get a form email and then no info for two weeks. Not very professional.

It doesn’t mean won’t get hired and it doesn’t mean that you have to get daily/weekly emails/phone calls for your desperation.
Once the process is done, you’ll get the answer they have for you. After that you either will be in the pool waiting or rejected.

IMHO your answer to that question seemed reasonable. I have no idea if they agree. They're likely looking at a lot of things.
Have patience and best of luck.
