Hey Guys, I am currently applying to the AROTC, AFROTC, and NROTC hopefully as fall backs to the Service Academies, but obviously I would be very grateful to get any of the opportunities to serve our country. I recently took the medical exam where I measured in as between 6'1 and 6'2 but rounded down to 6'1 and 205 pounds. I know that there is a weight requirement that we must pass especially if you want to compete for an active duty spot. My scores for the fitness test were 53 pushups, 49 sit-ups and a 5:47 mile. I qualified for all of the Service Academies, but would I not qualify to compete for an Active Duty spot through ROTC since I would be "overweight" for some of the branches? I really want to serve as an Active Duty officer and would be really disappointed if I didn't get the chance, but I did pass for all of the Service Academies which has me sort of confused. Thanks!
