mkang Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 What is required to receive a waiver for someone who received ADHD medication for 4 months, but has been declared symptom free? What would a doctor or psychiatrist need to do on their part to get class 1 flight physical approved? Does having this on record disqualify a person?

LuckyFool117 Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 I just recieved my approved Flight Medical Waiver for ADHD. It took 6 months due to a back log of waivers that were ahead of mine. I first had to get a waiver for general enlistment then another for flight. I have not been selected nor have I been to any boards at this time. My packet is almost complete all I have left to do is a Physical Fitness Test. Good luck!

amp Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 I just submitted my packet with a waiver for this. This is the APL that the flight surgeon sent me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyFool117 Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 When I took my Flight Physical I was scheduled both a Psychology review in person with an ARMY Psychologist and a verbal/ written Psych test. The ARMY Psychologist was pretty cool, we just sat and talked for an hour about my life. The written/ verbal test was 4 hours long and consisted mainly of memory games. This test was administered by a Neuropsychologist who was a civilian. Then I waited 6 months for the waiver to be reviewed and approved.

amp Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 Did you take an IQ Test as part of the testing? I had a civilian psychologist do all of the testing and prepare the report. Part of it was an IQ Test and the extensive MMPI test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyFool117 Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 To be honest I'm not sure. I don't remember ever being given an IQ score afterwards. The civilian just kinda smiled and told me not worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amp Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 My packet was kicked back needing additional testing. Specifically, I need what is called Continuous Performance Testing. This includes tests like Conners, Integrated Visual and Auditory Continuous Performance Test, or TOVA. Did you have to include any of these?
