Meridiani, I also spoke to my recruiter about the PRK waiver and he said that that too is submitted later so I don't think you should worry about that. BTW when you had your PRK did they use a VISX laser or an Autonomous laser? My Dr. offered me the option od which I want him to use to perform the surgery. I'm not sure about the selection procedure. My recruiter also told me that they select a certain amount of people based on district. However I was alsways under the impression that the board chose the most qualified applicants regardless of where they are from. -- dunno
