I passed at MEPS, barely, and I am wondering: are they a bit more lenient at boot camp, or will I still have to be at 140/90 or less? I won't get discharged if I'm just a bit too high will I? I am hoping they are just going to be looking for people with real hypertension--not just white coat anxiety like me...
 
I was a wreck at MEPS and they finally let me go with a 140/87 after my third try. I heard that you might catch some crap at basic but the folks understand that your under tremendous pressure also. Keep in mind that the drill instructors went through the same procedure.
