But there's one website said J can change to other status even he or she was subject to the 212(e) and without a waiver, only 3 kinds of visa can not change to. Of course the J holder will still be subject to the 212(e) after the other visa status finished.

And I also check the website of China embassy, it is said:

六、持J-1簽證來美後已經轉為其它簽證的人員可否申請豁免？
答：持J-1簽證來美後已經轉為其它簽證者，過去曾持J-1簽證來美、後又持其它簽證來美者，如其它條件符合辦法的規定，所持簽證仍然有效，可以申請豁免。

So I believe, after change to F1 visa, if your F1 visa is qualified with the requirement, you still can apply for waiver.
