Has anyone here been through the clearance process for TSC Full Scope Poly? I have had mine in process for quite some time now. The last status check I got was pending adjudication. Anyone have any insight on how long this part can take and what the next steps would be from here. Total process so far has been a little over two years.

I really aspire to be like Robin Boyd one day and help people. I know the problem is multifaceted but I wish there had been examples like her for me when I was even younger. I think if Black children who don't come from wealth were exposed to more representation in careers other than sports or working under someone forever, they'd have a better chance of making it to college or wherever they want to be and succeeding in life.
