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!

by fudging and then getting anxious and admitting to fudging, you basically add credence to the polygraphy community's claim that the tool is useful.

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?
