January, February test takers,  I'm looking to join a Skype group meeting between 4 and 7 pm Eastern Standard Time. I was a member of several last go round...
Anyone come up with any clever methods or websites for studying land and maritime borders? I suppose I could just buckle down and stare at a map and memorize...
www.sheppardsoftware.com has a great geography quizzing site. If you want something to install on your computer (Windows only, I think) Seterra 3.0 is freeware...
I agree with Jonathan. Quizzing yourself is the best way to go. No, staring at a map isn't going to get you very far all too quickly. I really like the...
I'd be interested. I sit for the exam 25 January in Atlanta. In France at the moment (GMT +1) but will be travelling to the States for the holidays....
I'll arrive in Fort Worth in mid December and would like to form, or attach myself to, a study group for the oral assessment which I sit for on 25 January. I'm...

Have you passed the PNQ's or are you still waiting. I live in DC and have not passed the PNQ's yet, and I don't know whether I should be wasting my time doing...
I'm gearing up to take the WE in February and based on reading postings here from recent test takers, have a few questions about languages. For those who...
Only SCNLs get tested at the QEP stage (after FSOT results are out). For more info, go to www.careers.state.gov. Good luck on the test. Motivation gets you...
Hey, so it looks like the only time I'll have to prep for my early Feb. orals is Dec 17-Jan 03. Does anyone know of any Skype study groups that gather in that...
I just noticed the FSS Careers yahoo group is back online. This group also disappeared with the hacking incident. Does this mean that the original FSOA group...
You're preparing for the FSOT, right? When and where will you be testing? I always thought of Milan as sub-tropical, like Florida, but snow this early sounds...
