Cool, Why NFO and not Pilot? Preference, vision, or just selection?

All three.

I'm hoping to apply to this board. All I have left is the N3M letter. Was disqualified at MEPS for something silly. I previously tried for the October board but didn't get my LASIK waiver on time. Good luck everyone!

Hoping to get this board. Have the whole packet ready to go I'm just waiting on MEPS to review my documents and allow me to come in for the physical.I submitted documents on Monday (11/27) Kind of nervous I might miss Dec 29 based on what I've been reading on how long they take. May the MEPS gods bless me with a quick turn around.

To all, God bless and good luck.

I'm hoping to get may package together in time to submit for this board. I am currently waiting on MEPS to get my physical done. It has been 10 weeks and still nothing from them. I posted this question in another section of the forum and someone said they were able to get their physical done at a navy medical facility. Is this true? I have tried to ask my OR but he has not answered my phone calls and keeps telling me "MEPS is MEPS, they're gunna do what they need to do. They have to take care of a bunch of people." Even if I get my physical done next week, will I have enough time to submit a package before the dead line? When I enlisted I was pushed through MEPS 2 days later.

I believe the deadline is Dec 29th, idk how long the whole MEPS thing takes to process, I believe mine was about two or three weeks after my MEPS date that I was Ok'd. Hopefully it works for you if you go in time... My recruiter told me that I only needed to give him 3 days notice, do you live in a high traffic area that is backed up or something?

Hey man, good luck on this board. If it makes you feel any better, it's taken me about one year to get medically qualified and to my first board. I EAS'd in February of 2017 and began the process immediately. I know the Chiefs get a report each week(maybe a few times a week) detailing which packets are pending with an explanation.
