Alright hopefully turned in my last letter and now just gotta wait for them to get back to the recruiter and him to get back to me, he is still pushing the nuke thing but I don't even care. Currently I am just debating intel specialist or network intel, so have to see where that goes. For the next time I meet with my recruiter before the MEPS what key things should I make sure are stated, that I get in as an E3, my job possibilities, and what else?
Be sure your contract is for the length of time you want. Most tend to be 4x4s (4 years active, 4 years Individual Ready Reserve (IRR). Depending on your school requirements, your active time might be longer. You CAN get it shorter, but at the expense of your Montgomery GI Bill. Choose wisely, and good luck!

Bah update so apparently my 3 year old release of care letter from my shoulder doctor wasn't good enough they want a more recent one, which means a new exam. Now currently I don't have insurance because that stupid new healthcare hasn't taken effect with my parents insurance, and I didn't sign up at my job because I figured I would just wait till I got into the navy. So I am going to have to pay how ever much it is to get a general exam and pray he doesn't require a x-ray or mri, else I would be fucked.

Alright one more update to anyone who may actually check this thread, I went to MEPS for the medical stuff, when I met directly with the Chief Medical Officer he asked if I was ever diagnosised with ADD or ADHD and I said yes and he asked about Ritalin which I also said yes to. Now previously I hadn't stated that I had because I miss read one of the questions or something on the original thing and my recruiter told me not to tell them, and I decided that outright lying about that was probably not the best choice given any of the 3 fields I am looking at require a variance of Security Clearance and that losing that would probably mean i would have to be reclassified or simply discharged.
Any who so now I need to get some papers from the doctor on all my Ritalin prescriptions, and I am just waiting on my recruiter to call me back (not sure if he is pissed off if i told them or not). But at least once i turn that stuff in I wont have to do the overnight thing for MEPS again.
