Retests are subject to approval by the MEPCOM commander. According to AR 601-210: Recruiters are not authorized to have applicants retested for the sole purpose of increasing aptitude area scores to meet standards prescribed for enlistment options or programs. If you score above a 50 (making you a g...

"40-45 Push ups, and 60-65 sit ups."

How many did you do? I don't believe he asked for a guess-timate of your physical fitness.

"Also, Ranger's need Combat Engineer's too." Who told you that? Your recruiter? Don't tell the men on this site who have BTDT what the Regiment needs, we are well aware. From the sounds of it, you need to just focus on passing the physical at MEPS. Last I heard, each Battalion was slotted ...

Patience and Persistance. Make it very clear that all they need to do to put you and your buddy in is find a couple of opt. 40 contracts. out of curiosity, what area of the country are you in?

haha that is the understatement of the year. You are lucky to have him as an instructor, soak up everything he has to say with a sponge.

did you meet SFC J?

Also, AR 40-501 will answer any questions you have on the myriad of medical issues that are presented in these forums. Both AR 40-501 and AR 601-210 can be found on Google.

You will probably need a letter from your doc stating that any medical issue you had is now remedied and that it will not be an issue in the future.

You need to listen to your recruiters on this. Be patient and be glad your recruiters are decent and honest, and aren't trying to pressure you into something you don't want like 70% of the kids on this site. You will get your 11x opt 40, just settle down and be patient.

This whole thing has been blown way out of proportion. Because of these people making a big deal out of a video game, that, oh by the way, the Army and DOD collaberated with EA on, It is now personally affecting my work as a recruiter. dicks.

50m target, bro. right now, your not even getting into the army, much less getting a clearance or opt. 40.

I watched the combat diver episode last night, was suprised to see one of my old squad leaders on there. I am also kind of suprised at the lack of PERSEC on these shows. I mean, its one thing to show a bunch of guys trying to make it through a selection school, but combat diver is not that.

A history of sleepwalking after the 13th birthday does not meet enlistment standards. so if you have documentation saying that you have had sleepwalking issues after your 13th birthday, you will require a waiver. The Army Regulation covering this implies that you could get a waiver if in fact you ha...

Not trying to hijack this thing, but I would say call and let your recruiter know, but there shouldn't be a problem with doing that. I am actually working with a guy right now who joined with a different recruiter, but is living in my area until he ships. This will work out better for you, ask whate...
