If you don't mind me asking, do they check your balls? How does that work? Is it just like a "turn you head an cough" real quick? Or do they really feel around or what?

[efbertoni]

@Dreaklock Yes the doc will check your balls but he or she won't them.

How do they do the vision test? In detail please

[efbertoni]

@Shino0657 The regular eye exam, they will also check your depth perception. You look at a chart full of circles and you need to tell them which ones stand out. You will be checked for color blindeness as well. For this one you will read numbers, the actual number has a different color then its background.

@Dreaklock Unless you are over 40 the doc won't stick anything up you butt. :)

They 2 days i went to MEPS i left for Canada the next day...so i was more nervous about Canada then anything...but i was pretty nervous for it, like i was going to mess up, but it really did go smoothly. The only problem i had was getting my blood drawn because i got lightheaded after i was done. I passed out in my chair but it looked like i was sleeping for a second lol. Kinda freaked me out but i got through it. The army gives you a fucking awesome ACU backpack too.

@JesusFreeekxD If your weight exceeds the standard set for your height

, a body-fat-measurement will be performed.

If your body-fat exceeds the maximum standard, which is 22% for men and 33% for women,

you will be temporarily disqualified, however, the physical will continue. The reason the physical will continue is so you don’t have to go through the entire medical screening again once you lose the weight in order to qualify for enlistment.

Take Care!

Can Meps Deny you for Being too Fat?
