<p>I was in your boat just a few months ago. Cross-country runner (not all-state though), 32 ACT, good extracurriculars, and asthma that hadn’t affected me in years. I got a waiver for the class of '10, but it is by no means a sure thing. I sent in a Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) EARLY, along with the results of a study on asthma in the military and an excerpt from “Black Hawk Down” that described an asthmatic Ranger (I’m not sure if these helped, but it doesn’t hurt). Sometimes they will request a methacholine test as well. Keep your hopes up, for it’s not impossible with your situation, but also keep your options open. GET ON IT EARLY. An LOA will give you a head start on the DODMERB process also. Good Luck.</p>
