		<description>If you can't pass the hearing test at MEPS you must be deaf they play a beep 100 times constantly just keep hitting the button and then they will stop for 30 seconds then 100 times constantly just keep hitting the button. It was the loudest hearing test I have ever taken. One time during the test a man or woman will come on and go don't press the button till you hear the tone even if you have been doing it 100% correctly. If it comes on more than 2 times than you might have to retake it.</description>

		<description>Here are the hearing standards as measured by a standard audiometer. Anything worse is disqualifying:
Pure tone at 500, 1000 and 2000 cycles per second: Not more than 30 decibels loss on the average with no individual level greater than 35 decibels loss at those levels.'
Pure tone at 3000 cycles per second: Not more than 45 decibels of hearing loss.
Pure tone at 4000 cycles per second: Not more than 55 decibels of hearing loss.
The source below is the medical standard.</description>
