Its only a matter of time

I recently just went to MEPS a few days ago and my recruiter hasn't spoke to me since, its been 6 days since I last spoke to my Marine Corps recruiter and I remember him asking me something along the lines of "Is there anything else you want to do?" which sounds like a bad omen to me because that feels like he might be quietly trying to drop me from the process.

I already bought the ASVAB for dummies book to study which I read yesterday on the math part because I am so terrible at math I had to take IEP classes for it.

I want to be able to smoke weed again eventually but I want to give it a month or 2 to see if my recruiter ghosts me on the process.

I would follow up with them in a week or two.

I was in the delayed entry program for the Navy my senior year of high school. I had to deal with MEPS two separate times and I still refer to it as an undocumented circle of hell.

What I did learn, the recruiter will do next to anything to get you in. If they are dealing with a bunch of new recruits, it could delay them getting in touch, but not by long.

If they don't respond, I wouldn't waste months of your time waiting for them to decide if they want you or not.

I hope you get what you need.
