New to DoDMerb

[Trackswagggg]

Hey! I was just awarded an Army ROTC scholarship and I am nervous about the exam... It seems like everyone is getting waivers. Are they that strict on everything?

I have never had any heath problems so my record is clean. However, I have a small plantar's wart that I am getting removed before, one small skin tag that is cosmetic only on the outside of my ear, and I have 20/30 vision. Should I be alright?

Also, how does it work? Is it just like a Doctor's exam?? Thanks!

Fill out the paperwork honestly. The exam is not that extensive/invasive. Based on what you listed you should be ok. If you get DQ'd or a remedial for anything (which just means DoDMERB needs more info before they make a decision), you'll need to either submit more paperwork or follow-up with another doctor. Also, once you have your doctor's appointments and they submit their results, it can take a few weeks/month for the results to upload to your DoDMERB account so be patient. Good luck!
