FSOT

Just a quick note today.  Ed just received news from the State Department that he passed the FSOT (Foreign Service Officers Test).  This is actually the second time he's passed it and now onto the remaining steps in hopes of becoming a Foreign Service Officer.  This is a REALLY long process! So much so that he will have completed this Graduate program (that he's starting this summer) before heading off to Washington DC for training.

The next step are PN's (Personal Narratives) which are basically 7 or 8 (I don't remember off the top of my head) mini essays about himself.

(If you're not familiar with an FS Officer.  They work for the State Department and live all over the world at various embassies.  Their job is to help American's in other countries and to issues Visas to those wanting to come here.  It's an often forgotten protection that our country has!)
