18A course backlog

I keep hearing that there are too many CPTs and not enough slots. Does anyone here have some clarity?

I know several ODA's commanded by CWOs. Not a CPT to be seen anywhere.

With the build up of the 4th BN in each of the groups, it won't be long before every CPT has a place.

Why?

Are you selected, or not?

Sir, I'm in the SFQC. I have finished language and SUT.

I'm specifically wondering about the 18A course and thought I might found some other students or SWC cadre on here who could extrapolate on waiting periods for starting.

Are you hearing this from anyone with credibility?

There's no backlog. They are just making the classes bigger.
