I just went up to meps on April 20th and 21st of this week in Buffalo, New York. I scored a 99 on my test and had a great time at meps except for that fact that I could not sign up for nuke while I was there. I had my college transcript for my two years of college, but I didn't have my high school transcript because my high school doesn't allow you to pick up your transcript in person. They only mail the official one out. So because it is spring break week and my 2 dollar check hasn't gotten to them in the mail yet, I'm sol. I enlisted into the dep program as a submarine non nuke et, which I almost feel comfortable about doing although I probably shouldn't. My recruiter and the job counselor assured me that once my high school transcript came in next week, I would be able to change my job. I'm hoping everything works out okay. I'm nervous and excited. I also had to fill out an academic waiver for failing calculus my senior year, even though I've passed calc 1,2, and 3 in college. Does anyone have any advice?
On the lighter side of things they had a good sense of humor at meps, laughing at my lame joke asking to opt for the catheter for the urinalysis. What I thought was going to be pain and suffering from some of the horror stories I've read turned out to be an almost delightful experience. Thank you for any replies.
