camp? After you have talked with your recruiter is there any test you have to take? Like do they send you somewhere to take a test and choose your MOS or do you do all that in the recruiting office? Is there anything you have to do or any test you have to take before you get on the bus to leave for boot camp. (Paris Island for me)
ok where do you take that test at and when?
 
Yeah. It's called the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery. ASVAB for short.
 
its called the ASVAB. you take the test to find out what mos you get. you take it at meps after you pass it you then sleep over for your physical part . once you pass that you then go see a counselor to find the job you qualify for. then you sign a shit load of papers get finger printed and then swear in. they will give you the day you leave for basic then too
 
The first question on the test for you will be how to spell PARRIS Island. Take an extra supply of R's just to make sure you get it right.

Good Luck. Hopefully, we can call you a marine in a few months.
