Hi,
So I have gone through MEPS once for the Navy but am now looking at applying to the Air Force to keep my options open (I just want to serve - due to family history, the Navy is my first choice, but haven't heard from them and don't want to miss my window for the AF). Will I have to go through MEPS again or can they use any of the same info? I know some of the tests can vary by branch, but it seems like it should be similar for a profession. It took forever when I put my first kit together and would like to streamline this process if possible.

Your physical exam is good for 2 years and should be able to be pulled over to which ever service is wanting to use it. The only exception is if the service you took the original exam with actually checked the hard copy out of the MEPS and it cant be located. If that happens then they would require you to retake the entire exam again. If you try a different branch they should be able to find out farely easily if the original is still on file at the MEPS.
Thanks! That was helpful to hear.
No Problem glad I could help. I currently work at a MEPS so if you have any questions just ask.
