I'm in the same boat as you cm492. I have not been drug free for an entire year, and therefore was disqualified, even though I had stellar qualifications. They were very clear with me over a conversation that I was being disqualified because of the recent drug usage and that I should reapply. However, I'm young...early 20s. So, I'll probably pursue grad school or a private sector career and reapply a year or two from now.
Would you mind clearing something up? What drugs were in your past? Just pot or anything harsher as well?
Also, as far a marijuana usage goes, approximately how many times total in your life did you use it? |

The recent one that had disqualifed me was pot. But there was also a hard drug used a few times that came up during my second app and I was 100% honest about it, so they didn't really care. the pot use was not excesive--averaged about 5 times a year for 8 years. by the times i was doing my security stuff for the 2nd app i was almost three years without use.
