Altering review standards?

[ImperatorZices]

Hey all. First year AFROTC cadet here.

I am looking to enroll in the Marines PLC this summer, and with deadlines fast approaching I was informed that I need to do my DodMERB before I can complete the application.

I have an appointment scheduled, but it will be reviewed by DodMERB according to AFROTC standards. The Marine recruiting captain stated that the review process is different for a prospective Marine, but I cannot find any information on the website that would allow me to change my application to reflect this.

Do I just let the examiner know that I want the results reviewed according to Marine standards? Is there a link on the site I haven't found that would allow me to make the necessary changes?

Many thanks for all your help!

Are you sure that your physical will even be reviewed by DoDMERB? I was under the impression that Marine OSOs sent prospective PLC and OCS candidates to MEPS for their physicals, which is a separate process. Of course, I guess it could be different since you are already enrolled in ROTC...

I called DoDMERB soon after posting this, and was told that all I have to do is complete the exams, and the individual programs will review the results based on their respective criteria. Hopefully that was what the officer was looking to hear.

Thanks for the assist!

It will be reviewed in accordance with DoD standards, except for vision, which is Service specific
