hi
im actully thinking about enlisting in the marine corps.i failed the math section of the asvab.im looking for some very patient volenterrs who can help me(prefribly in person)send me a pm(can you do that here?).
thanx and good luck to me.
 
Welcome to the forum, Nik.

I would suggest you double-time it to your local bookstore and purchase an ASVAB study guide. They run between $15 -25 dollars depending on the make. As well as practise tests, the guide will also include step by step instructions in figuring out the mathematical problems that may be on the test.

Did you fail the "Pre-ASVAB" or the ASVAB itself? The Marine Corps gives a screening prior to discussing any potential contract. If it was the ASVAB you failed, ask your recruiter to take some time with you once you've purchased a study guide.

Good luck.

Not necessarily. You may be disqualified for service as a Regular/Reserve/National Guard...but have you considered volunteering in an alternative such as the Coast Guard Auxiliary, Civil Air Patrol (Air Force Auxiliary), or your local State Military Reserve? Assuming that you are at least 18 years old, your medical history may not be a disqualifying factor for joining one of these groups. True, these organizations may not be as glamerous and "gung ho" as what you were looking for, but their members serve with as much honor as their Regular brethren.

Actually, honesty IS the way to go in such situations. If you had lied about it, and such was discovered later, then yes you could receive up to 2 years in military prison followed by a dishonerable discharge.

Look at it this way...let's assume that you were serving with a guy and you found out that he lied about his medical history. Wouldn't you wonder what else he had lied about? Would you ever be able to completely trust him again?
