Just posting for the new ones finding this video, even if you get disqualified you can get waivers, for me I had 167 pages worth of documentation being a military brat so they had everything now it took two months to get approved finally to swear in because of that so don't give up if they dq at meps.
I get to go to meps next week I finally peed clean of thc. I’m taking the test at my recruiter station and see what mos I qualify for and where I get to go I’m excited to start this journey
Make sure to drink fluids before you go so you’re able to piss. I learned the hard way when I pissed before I left the hotel and didn’t drink anything till it was my turn😂
Heading to Meps in two days very nervous I’ll let you guys know how it goes and I’ll probably make a video on my acc on my experience this video helped me Loki
Do anyone knows if I’m still eligible to join if I have minor carpal tunnel in my hand, I could get surgery and make it go away but figured I don’t want that on my record.?
I’m going to Meps in about two weeks. I have wrist issues and asked someone that is in charge about it and they said I should be good bc I wasn’t diagnosed and I also have an xray that came back normal. I’m pretty sure you should good. Just don’t bring it up and if they ask just say you forgot about it and it isn’t a problem.
I need to know what I can and can't bring bc I don't want to have to get rid of any of my belongings. The only thing I wanted to take were my boxing gloves/shoes bc my ssg told me they have a work out gymnast the hotel and I wanted to know if they have a punching bag or anything of that nature. If they don't I don't wanna have to get rid of anything or bring then for no reason
Appreciate all the info man and thank you for your service. I do have 2 questions if you could answer it would be greatly appreciated. 1 is i had cancer about 13 years ago and was wondering if you knew how they will react to that? In currently waiting to hear back from a recruiter. And 2 is i have slightly unsteady hands, may be due to poor habits and diet that im trying to work on now, but if its something im unable to fix have you met anyone that had a similar issue that was still able to serve, or is that a big no go? Thanks again
Your best bet is a recruiter for the cancer, my general understanding is as long its in total remission its good to go, as far as the hands it depends on whats documented on them chalk it up to nerves if anything. This is the Disqualifying Manual that MEPS uses to find medical issues unfit for service DOD INSTRUCTION 6130.03, VOLUME 1 MEDICAL STANDARDS FOR MILITARY SERVICE: APPOINTMENT, ENLISTMENT, OR INDUCTION . Obviously a waiver will be branch specific I know for the navy it's a little bit laxed right now. Best of luck in your journey.
Tbh bro, they’re really picky on who they let in rn and the fact that you had cancer before might make them turn you down but if you really want to do it keep trying
Thanks for the video. When they do the physical exam at meps do they just look at your body or do they touch head to toe in order to inspect your body? I heard they only hold the sac and make you cough. is that all? Not even trying to be funny, seriously curious. Thanks in advance
My visit at meps was easy, nothing crazy happen. Once I was one on one with the door he asked me 125 questions, two questions about my previous visit, and then we did everything else. After 10 minutes he said you passed….
You should be prepared if you have a history of any medical condition or have taken any meds. A good recruiter will prepare for those contingencies and how to apply for waivers with thr best chances of success.
I’m at meps hotel rn and the guy I’m staying with snoring like a mufuka ☠️🤣 took me 40 days to pee clean but if ur nervous I suggest certo and water week before. It flushes ur system and I passed my recruiter test and a qt home test on day 34 so tested myself again today once I woke up on yellow pee and passed so Yeye I was a ounce every 2 weeks kinda dude and like 2 carts every 2 weeks if I can do it u can homies
Planning on making that first appointment to see a recruiter next year. I was born with no sense of smell. No brain injuries and never been diagnosed with anything. Just can't smell. Will this be an issue?
Bro I got Adhd and take prescription adderall / therapy. No way I’m joining the corps or the army. I’m bummed because I want to serve my country and become a soldier or marine. I want combat and the experience of it.
@@chickensauce85 i just spoke with my marine recruiter. the worst that can happen is you can’t join. might as well try right? if they say no u can most likely get it wavered

So you never took a picat test? At the recruiters office.??
@@kevaughnbooze1857hello please what do You mean by authorization ? Was the Picat test you took at your recruiters office the same as the one you took at MEps ? Were they same questions ? Please reply
I haven’t been to Meps I go this Wednesday but my recruiter told me that basically, all I’m doing is verifying the test I took online he said it’s 30 random questions from the test I took and if I get the majority of them right I’ll pass the authorization test at Meps but if I don’t I have to take the full test.
After taking the PICAT you have to take a verified test. Fortunately for me I finished early and my recruiter took me to Camp Mabry as a walk in to take the verified CAT-ASVAB. My recruiter told me that the verified test takes 30 questions from the PICAT you take there at the recruiters office.
Hey bro I have a few dings I have taken prescriptions for pain killer I applied for the army and I put no in all questions I may have messed up due to Meps process any feedback
Honestly bro, if it’s not in the system just lie to them cuz they gonna try to extend you wait time as long as possible but since medical things are usually in the system just tell them the truth cuz if you get caught lying your grits.
Same here I forgot that I was proscribed something similar to adderal when I was 11 or 12 that said it’s been long past then and I don’t need it to function by any means, I’m 21 now and just nervous they won’t accept me. Any thoughts?
@@jessGame2 I think it’s called genesis. Will they find everything you don’t mention (physical/mental health history) or just say no and you should be good?
@@Himskii339 I would just tell your recruiter everything when y’all start doin the medical paperwork. Only because they can start working on getting you waivers as soon as possible. If MEPS find something that you didn’t tell your recruiter, they can just disqualify you instantly. But it’s definitely up to you though
@ethanrosejr4245 Yes, they do for me at least. If you've ever had. Broken arm or asthma ever they can see that. Since they do a full body examination, they can see all your scars. So if you can go to the doctor and get all of those examined before then. GET A DOCTORS NOTE, saying that they don't see why you shouldn't join and everything is fine. Also, tell your recruiter everything. He/she can hell you. When you get to the medical part at meps, don't lie, but don't tell them any new info. Like say yes or no, and don't add anything.
I have a snapping sound in my wrist when I move it a certain way after dropping a weight on it during exercise. It doesn't hinder me from anything and It's not documented in any medical forms. Should I be good in MEPS? Joining the USANG.
Yes i did all of that and I thought I was done cause he told that I passed after I heard that I’m going to fort Jackson for the 09M program to increase my score he should’ve told me that before but anyway
@@jeanville9583 same bruh in going on Wednesday to MEPs for verification test and I didn't know I have to go to that program as well I hope I get to go in July tho.
Anyone that’s in the process like me god bless you ❤
god bless you too
I am right now 😊
I finally passed everything yesterday. I ship out March 5th. They said they don’t have enough females to train us at boot camp.
Just posting for the new ones finding this video, even if you get disqualified you can get waivers, for me I had 167 pages worth of documentation being a military brat so they had everything now it took two months to get approved finally to swear in because of that so don't give up if they dq at meps.
Good info!
My meps was pretty chill. Everyone did different things and for the ones that finished early got to watch a movie and they even had food.
Damn must be nice😂 we couldn’t even have our phone until towards the end of the day
The physical sounds like a football physical. It was that crucial
Duck walks and all
It wasn’t as bad as I thought honestly
Finger in booty hole?
I’m waiting to go to Meps as well just for the medical part I already passed my ASVAB I’m hoping to go next week
same
Same here, I leave in 3 days
Good Luck!!
I get to go to meps next week I finally peed clean of thc. I’m taking the test at my recruiter station and see what mos I qualify for and where I get to go I’m excited to start this journey
How did you get clean fast?
@@KY-TV it took me 3 monthsb
what test did you take to make sure your pee was clean homie
@@juni_wrld they give you pee tests at the recruiter station and so I would go every month to see if I was clean it took me 3 months to pee clean
@@daniel-qg1ncme too
Make sure to drink fluids before you go so you’re able to piss. I learned the hard way when I pissed before I left the hotel and didn’t drink anything till it was my turn😂
Nah fr! I seen people have to go back to MEPS just to take the pee test😂
I for real drank from the sink ALL day to make sure I could pee 😂
I went to meps in Miami and that shit took forever and I already took my asvab before so idk why it took so long.
That phrase “hurry up and wait” real
Thanks for this! Heading to meps in a couple days and this makes me feel much better lol. Doesn’t sound too bad, just a lot of waiting.
Im going to meps tomorrow I'm hella nervous
How’d it go??
I just went to MEPS this week, and I swore in to conditional DEP pending a waiver approval so hopefully I’ll hear back soon with good news.
Heading to Meps in two days very nervous I’ll let you guys know how it goes and I’ll probably make a video on my acc on my experience this video helped me Loki

@@justinmoreno9684 A lot of waiting but easy, I ship out January 28
Great info! Thanks for sharing!
what was your asvab score?
If they find something on your medical record that isn’t physically visible on your body can you deny it
Do anyone knows if I’m still eligible to join if I have minor carpal tunnel in my hand, I could get surgery and make it go away but figured I don’t want that on my record.?

What branch?
Does Meps have access to your medical records?

For mesp can u drive yourself to the hotel or do u start at the recruiter's office
