No, but I didn't go to MEPS either. I had my medical eval done at the Medical Clinic on Great Lakes Naval Station which is just down the road from NRD Chicago. My recruiter said that MEPS is not mandatory, but people like to use them because they do so many PRECOM physicals. The Navy clinic I went to also did a lot of PRECOMs, so it was relatively easy to do it there. Granted this isn't the same as using your civilian doc, but if you use the DD2808 and DD2807 forms, it seems like it should be ok. However, it just seems more likely though that someone who is used to doing miliary physicals would be more approptiate. Just my two cents.
Very optimistic video about the flooding at Millington:

I though it would still be flooded but it's not anymore!

Nothing on my end yet...still waiting for MEPS to get my paperwork together and PFT scheduled with recruiter, should be able to in another few days.
Did anyone's recruiter give them expected OCS date, which classes are currently filling up? My OR said accessions for FY10 are pretty much closed out, but there's always the chance a slot may open up earlier than expected if anyone DOR's from the program (still all contingent on when an expected date would be in the first place, of which he said the processor could give an aproximation). Anybody hear otherwise?

Final Selects usually take anywhere between 1-3 months after Pro Rec, sometimes longer if there are problems with getting the background check rolling, or waiver issues. I am still waiting on the April Board Intel results I don't think final selects will be happening anytime soon.

Gotcha. Since I'm a fleet applicant most of that stuff is done. I believe the only thing that needs to be checked is my medical information.
Yeah, then I take it you are familiar with the Navy's unofficial Motto "Hurry up and wait":icon_smil Hopefully you will hear back sooner than others in that case, although some posts I have read leave me with the impression that a lot of the waiting is just a matter of having your kit sit on some Admiral's desk for a month waiting to be signed. Who knows? At any rate, congrats on th Pro Rec, hopefully I will enter phase 2 of the waiting game in the coming week.

The waiting game is not an efficient, but oh well. It is what it is. Thanks for the congrats and best of luck to you!
I took the ASVAB this evening, scored a 95 and qualified for every enlisted job that does not have an age requirement. I don't know why the ASTB gave me such a hard time, it didn't seem like there was much difference in the types of questions in the Math, and Mechanical Comp Sections. I'm enlisting if the April INTEL results do not come back in my favor.
Hey Guys!
So I'm switching sides and coming to the April 2010 thread now. My app was reviewed at the March board and, (thank God!) I was not rejected like most of the hundreds of people - but, was not Pro-Rec'd. I have a feeling it was because I was way down on the list since my app was sent off on the very last cutoff day in Feb.
So here it is!

51 5/5/5
BA 3.2
Post BA 3.5
MA 3.9
-Many years in different leadership capacities, 5 years as a High School Band Director
-6 (I think very strong) LOR's (1 from an AF 0-5 (Ret) that I used to work with and was once a professor at the AF Academy)
...Back to the waiting game!!!
Good Luck Everyone! I hope we ALL get what we want and the Navy needs!
