I just wonder why they called me back for a second poly, if they think they caught me on a lie on my SF-86 during the first one. Did they want to get more out of me or just torture me? If I was automatically dismissed, while call me back for the second one?

You have to remember, that you can lie on a poly, but not on the SF86 BI form (there are no reprecusions for lying on a poly, although, the polygrapher will want you to believe otherwise)...

Are you stating that you admitted to smoking pot during the poly different/more than on your BI.
If this is so then you did not do well. I dont say passed because I truly dont believe that there is a passing grade. Only how they use reaction vs. reaction.
You should be totally honest with how you fill out forms or continue to fudge ( as you stated ). You cant change your story.
Perhaps I did not understand what you wrote. Anyway you will know within 4-8 weeks.

I just had my poly a couple days ago. I'm just absolutely irate about the whole experience. The job I was offered was my absolute dream job -- they even scheduled me for an office visit at Langley that was wonderful.
What is nagging at me is the fact that I was completely uneducated about the test before I went in. I knew that I had fudged the times that I had smoke pot in college on my BI form, so that was weighing on me. During the interrogation I admitted that I had possibly tried pot 2-3 more times during those years, but it was only "a drag at a party".
I was scheduled for another poly the next day, but this time I went home and read about the process. During the second poly, she said it was going badly and kept pressing and pressing for more info on drugs until I almost cried (but I never admitted anything else). She didn't schedule me for a third, but it seemed unresolved.
Do you think I have absolutely any chance of getting through security? I want this job more than anything.
Please give me advice, condolences, hope, something!
