Well, it seems some things have changed since I enlisted (1998.) However, the USAF and the Coast Guard now hold the same minimum AFQT entrance scores (36), being the highest minimums. When I joined, the USAF AFQT minimum was a 41 with Army and Navy being a 31 and the Marines being a 26 (I talked extensively w/ the Marine Recruiter before I finally decided on the USAF.) I see the stuff about the waivers, but you've also got to look at that percentage. Heck, just about anything can be waivered. (Ex. I heard a tale about a Maori guy getting a waiver for his facial tattoos in the Army some years ago.)
