h3 hearing at MEPS = disqualified. need advice

[jpres230]

I failed my hearing test at MEPS ( 3 test 3 different variants) and was sent home. My recruiter had me get a hearing test for a waiver (also different) and he sent it back to MEPS . The MEPS Doctors would not make a ruling on it and sent it to a medical review board where I was PDQ. My recruiter says that there is nothing else he can do. Is that that or can I press the issue for another waiver? Hell, I didn't know I was deaf and honestly I thought I had good hearing.

You're out of luck. It seems your case was taken as far as it can go and the BUMED board ruled against you. Sorry. Not everyone can get in.
