Hey everyone. I'm an engineering student applying to the reserves as a combat engineering officer. Unfortunately I partially tore my ACL 6 weeks ago. I'm back to normal and don't need surgery. I can walk and run fine with no pain. My sports dr. gave me a note saying I'm "expected" to be ready for army training in the fall. What do you guys think my chances of passing the medical are? If I don't pass the medical now can i take it again when i get a dr. note saying not that i'm not "expected" but am fully ready for army training? Or do the army dr's just automatically deny entry to people with a torn ACL??
Thanks for the input
by the way I DID search knee, knees and ACL but couldn't find anthing on ACL tears specifically but it did sound like most knee injuries ruin your application.
