CTR Questions

So I'm shipping off as a CTR in may and I have a few questions.
1. I noticed on the rating card that at one point it says A school is 19 weeks and right below that it says its only 16 weeks. So which one is it?
2. I filled out the forms for the security clearance but if I'm not mistaken there's some sort of interview as part of the process too, and if so when does this take place?
3. And about assignments; what are the best places to be stationed as a CTR, can you explain exactly what DIRSUP and PCS afloat are(I've seen references to them online but not clear definition), and how often do they get stationed on ships?
Thanks for any answers you can give, I know it's a lot of questions but I haven't been able to find a whole lot of info on my rating because of the security issues.
