So I just found out today that I have a pt test in two days. I am on a permanent profile to do the walk. My NCO also told me that since I’m taking a pt test, they have will be doing another height and weight on me even tho I did one 2 months ago and passed despite not taking a pt test as I was on a temp profile then. I was on the ABCP program in October of last year. My question is, can they do another ht/wt on me if I just did one? And if I fail (I’m overweigh and won’t pass tape) can they separate me??

Thank you for your advice!!! I actually ended up having an upper respiratory infection and was unable to do the pt test so I have another month to get my weight under control.
