    What is/was your Coast Guard Plan B?

    My DS' plan B was all civilian schools, Binghamton, NYU, and Carnegie Mellon. Had he not been appointed and wanted to re-apply, I'd prefer him to go to Binghamton (full scholarship) for a year.

    Here is a dumb question - how do you accept the appointment? In Bear's den?

    I just went through the same thing yesterday and received help here. You need to log in to your account on www.dodmets.com. You then fill out the medical history form there, print it out and take it to your doctor. We didn't receive an email from Concord either.

    Thanks for the information. Do you mean the status page in the DODMERB account? There are no instructions on that page in his account.

    DS hasn't received anything from Concord. I guess it's because he was late for everything - late application, late PFT and late interview. We are really new to the military application process. The AO called today to ask about the progress. He said not to worry about the deadlines. They are...

    My DS hasn't done the medical exam. I have a few basic questions about the DODMERB process. I don't think the website is very helpful. DS created an account, but there aren't instructions from there. What should we do? Is there a list of doctors that we can choose from? How do we submit the...

    Thanks! Sorry to hear about the track situation when you tried to improve your PFE. Sometimes things are out of our control. I don't know how important the PFE score is. My son's running score was terrible, but it was cold and windy that day. His teacher wrote a note and also suggested a retest...

    Long story. My DS submitted his application on Jan 15, but he didn't take the PFE till Feb 14. His PE teacher wasn't available for a period of time. The AO emailed us several times asking for the PFE. My son finally took it on 2/14, which is the deadline for the PFE. He only scored a B and he...

    My DS got a call today that informed him of his appointment. He submitted his application right before the deadline and had an interview over Skype about a week ago. It's kind of fast for him. We didn't receive any information in between other than that the AO emailed him to urge him to take the...
