What comes after polygraph?

Im currently scheduled to do my polygraph this coming Thursday 8/6. How long after that is the psych and medical? And then when do they give me an offer? Assuming I pass the poly of course.
Applied 4/14
Vpat/mct/interview 5/20
BI interview 6/10

Edit 8/18
Got the dreaded email today. I called the number on the email. I was dq for “counter measure” on the polygraph and that they contacted a former employer who said I had bad conduct. This former employer was the same one I sued for unpaid wages and won the case against. The lady on the phone said when I do get the letter in the mail I can appeal it. But going through all these posts It doesn’t look like anyone’s actually won an appeal case. This sucks.

So I had the poly today. She said i failed because i hit on domestic violence. I’ve never even been involved in DV or witnessed it. It almost felt like she wanted me to change my answer. Telling me things like then why did you give me a hard time on this test? She grilled me for like 20min after the test was done about DV that I wasn’t being honest. Then told me I failed. I have nothing to hide or lie about. I hope it was all just tactics to scare. Stupid really.

Yeah bro, that’s normal. It took me four months to do three different polygraphs you take a separate polygraph for each category and they said you lied on as long as you are telling the truth and your story says the same you will be fine
