How good will i look to MEPS?

Other people asked questions on various topics, and are still
waiting for answer. Would be great if you can take a sec and
answer them

How good will i look to MEPS?I want to qualify for 11b and I'm only a few months shy of 16, but as of now, what do you think would happen to me at MEPS?
1) I have "very mild asthma" as my doctor has called it. I can't even remember the last time i had an attack or where my inhaler is. It doesn't bar me from exercising or anything else for that matter.
2) When i 13, i cut myself on my inner thigh for only about a week. I have 8 "scars" added from both legs and only one is really a bumpy, white anomaly. The others are just brown slits. (I'm using Mederma to hopefully fade them to the point of obscurity). Other then that, i have NO written medical history of depression, medication or anything else and i haven't even felt down since. It was just a phase.
I'm not "athletic" fit, but i have a very fast metabolism, so, lucky me, i never really gain weight. I've been exercising lately (push-ups, sit-ups, running, breathing exercises and walking with weighted bookbag). I don't do drugs, i don't drink, I'm not gay, I have practically no body fat. Any help?
I know i can't enlist yet, I'm just trying to get an early opinion.

Do not tell them you have asthma or ever did. Automatic DQ. Other than that nobody cares about scars as long as you havnt had surgery recently

Considering you are 16 you are not qualified at all. You must be 17 with parents permission or 18 by yourself. The asthma may (and probably will be) a problem for you. It is one of the largest disqualifiers.

-Vitamin E
-It doesn't matter if you have "very mild asthma". It is going to be classified as Asthma on your medical chart, and that shit won't look good.
-Scars are largely pointless, they don't really care.
-It's good that you got no real problems, mentally or physically, but you're gonna want to gain some muscle mass.

Don't tell them you have Mild Asthma.
Your scars are OK just don't mention you stayed over night at a hospital if you did,If your scars aren't really visible don't even mention it.
