Were you disqualified, or incomplete pending a psych consult for something disclosed in the physical? If you want to have any chance of becoming qualified, then you need to go to the consult.Response by SFC J Fullerton made Mar 9 at 2017 9:48 AM2017-03-09T09:48:44-05:002017-03-09T09:48:44-05:00Sgt Private RallyPoint Member2405952<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Why have you not taken the psych eval? If you were just moving furniture, it should not be a problem. What is the rest of this story?Response by Sgt Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 9 at 2017 12:22 PM2017-03-09T12:22:54-05:002017-03-09T12:22:54-05:00MSG Brad Sand2406218<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><br />Yes, BUT you probably do not want to skip it if you ever want to get in.<br />There is nothing compelling you to do anything for the MEPS outside of the Selective Service or orders to those in the IRR, or something similar.<br />It sounds like you were processing for enlistment, they found something, and you now have a 3 or an open profile. Being disqualified by a MEPS only means you did not get a 1 or 2 in the 6 categories of AR 40-501 Chapter 2. There are thousands of people serving today who were medically disqualified, and even more who would be DQ when they retired, if they were to take their initial physical at that time?<br />With this in mind, the main reason they would schedule an additional exam (your case a Psych) would to either close an open profile and qualify you or because it was requested by the service you were processing for before approving your waiver.Response by MSG Brad Sand made Mar 9 at 2017 1:42 PM2017-03-09T13:42:47-05:002017-03-09T13:42:47-05:00COL Charles Williams2407246<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Need more information....Response by COL Charles Williams made Mar 9 at 2017 8:20 PM2017-03-09T20:20:35-05:002017-03-09T20:20:35-05:00SFC Private RallyPoint Member2408758<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>i seriously doubt that.Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 10 at 2017 11:32 AM2017-03-10T11:32:52-05:002017-03-10T11:32:52-05:00SPC Private RallyPoint Member2409063<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Best option, to be honest, is to just go to the eval. Get checked out and cleared, and go on about your business. The fact that you're trying to duck out of it poses more concern than the fact that you were referred to one in the first place. If you know that you're good-to-go, then why not just do it, check the block and move on? It only slows the process a little, and does not follow you, if given the all-clear. So why bother trying to dodge it, if you want in that badly? That indicates that you have something to hide that's bigger than the little one-inch scar on your arm.Response by SPC Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 10 at 2017 1:26 PM2017-03-10T13:26:07-05:002017-03-10T13:26:07-05:00Private RallyPoint Member2731808<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>did you end up getting to enlist ?? its july 14th 2017Response by Private RallyPoint Member made Jul 14 at 2017 8:47 PM2017-07-14T20:47:32-04:002017-07-14T20:47:32-04:002017-03-09T04:31:01-05:00
