2nd Pre-Employment Poly Q

[Anonymous]

Ok, so I need to take a 2nd poly because I am assuming my first one was deemed "inconclusive".  I may have made a few somewhat damaging confessions (yes I know I'm stupid and have since read TTBTP), but all of them occurred 2-10 years ago.  Being that I am only in my early 20's, I was a kid/teenager at the time of all of them and nothing has been recent.  

My questions are, will my new examiner have access to my old chart/confessions.  How to deal with them in the next poly (since they are on record), or whether I should mention them at all.  Also any other advice.

On a side note, my background investigation started and was almost finished before I took my first poly.

I am awaiting my 3rd poly, so I'm definately not an expert, but on my 2nd poly they did have full access to the information that was on my 1st poly.  In fact they probed in those areas a bit on the 2nd poly.

I'm not sure what the TTBTP is but if it's the article on the polygraph contermeasures, I think it might be a mistake to lie.  Though, I'm still waiting to see what the heck the status of mine is.  I've been waiting 14 months for the NSA to decide on mine.

I meant the truth behind the lie detector.  As another aside, I was given an R/I test.  But my current plan is to research and find out exactly what I had done in the past (as my previous examiner greatly inflated my confessions) and stick to my guns.

Why would you need to research to find out "what you've done in the past"  I don't understand?  I know my poly examiner told me I was lying about counter-intelligence.  Complete bullshit.  I never, ever even had information to give anyone, much less would I.  So I knew they were bluffing.  And yet I still ended up scheduled for a 2nd poly and now am in limbo.  

What is a R/I test.

What is a R/I test.

"R/I" is shorthand for "Relevant/Irrelevant." Incidentally, it's the standby technique used by the NSA for polygraph screening.
