Hi all!
First, congrats to all those who received the 4 year- HPSP for the AF this past week. I am excited to one day serve alongside you!
Now, for my questions: I have read tons of different boards about MEPS and how drawn out the process is. I have no major medical issues, i'm on pretty routine medications, and I have not been hospitalized for any reason. My recruiter did make a stink that I am underweight by about 10 lbs. for my height. He said to try and gain some weight before I go to MEPS in two weeks. I can try but it's slightly unrealistic. Is this going to be an issue at MEPS? Does it require a waiver? I did denote my weight and height on medical prescreen and it didn't seem to be an issue then.
Also, any other knowledge or advice you have about HPSP or MEPS would be greatly welcomed! Thanks!
