Ok everyone I went down to 180 Livingston this morning at 645am for medical and my 2nd drug test for the 5/19 class. Had to take a second d/t bcuz my 1st would be past the 90 day d/t window by 5/19. Typically you would knock out med and final processing the same day. But they explained this to me via phone call this past Friday. Anyway I got there at 645am today took a number at the front desk and waited until about 745 until they started calling people. Thankfully they announced that they would be taking care of medical 1st and then everyone else after. I was the 4th person in line for med. they hand you a form to fill out with basic personal info, name, ss#, list# , etc.. You also need to have your id sscard birth cert/passport and hs diploma with you. After u fill out the form they transfer you to another room where they will call your # and have you fill out two lengthy medical history questionnaires via computer. Once you're done with that they will print up your surveys and have you sign them and wait to be called by a doc by NAME. Once the doc calls you they will take you to another waiting area where you get called in for EKG, blood pressure, urine testing for sugar, vision and hearing. Once that's complete you will report back to the room where u took the medical surveys and wait for the doc to call u again. Once called the doc will take u to a room and check your breathing and heart rate again for circulation. Then the doc will basically verbally ask you questions similar to the survey. Do u smoke, drink etc.. Have u had surgery, are you taking medication.. How's your cholesterol and sugar!!!! Key question they ask because they never draw blood from you so they are looking for any indication that there may be an issue with you. Most importantly if you do have an issue please get it fixed and second and most importantly don't disqualify yourself if you know what I mean. In my case I honestly don't have any issues and I passed with flying colors thank god. After that I had to take my second d/T and now I have to wait for the last phone call to return for final processing. According to them if everything comes back clean (which it will) I will be part of the 5/19 class. So until then I'll be waiting for my call! If you have any other questions feel free to ask. List#2280-2300. According to the front desk people the last person to officially "BEGIN CLASS" is #2090. But we all know that they have set up classes for 4/28 already with people up in 2250-2270 range already. Hope this was helpful. Best of luck to all the pending/hopefuls and congrats to all the pioneers before us on this forum who already made it through. 5 LONG YEARS AND WAITING!!
