You speak with a Recruiter. They will have all the answers regarding your chances. RE-3 WILL need a Waiver. You're also going to need one for the JKQ. However, I caution you to NOT get your hopes up too high about getting back in, when taking your JKQ into account.

I've also edited your Tags to get a better and more accurate audience

A recruiter is the one you need to address this with. JKQ will create an uphill battle but a recruiter is the point of contact you need to use to find out the process and whether this will happen or not.

The JKQ means you were discharged due to misconduct and/or commission of a serious offense. An RE-3 code means you can normally reenlist in the service, but may require a waiver to be processed. If your separation was due to misconduct, it should be a simple task. If it were due to a 'serious offense' you'll probably need to qualify for a very technically advanced MOS or for a field that is hurting for members. Then someone to push and advocate for you.
