Getting Ready for the Trip
Once MEPS has given the recruiter the "okay" on the prescreening, the recruiter will schedule your visit to MEPS. Here are some general rules to remember that apply to your visit:
-Discuss any childhood medical problems with your parents and bring documentation with you.

-Remove earrings (they obstruct the headset used for the hearing test).

-Wear neat, moderate, comfortable clothing.
