Hello everybody. A little about me, I am going into my junior year of high school, my goal is to attend USMA or win an AROTC Scholarship, and I want to commission as an Officer into the United States Army. I could go into all of my "stats" and stuff like that but I'll save that for another thread or if anyone wants to see them or has any questions I'll post whatever. I'll dive right into my questions, if anyone goes to a SMC or does AROTC and knows the answers or advice I'd love to hear anything!
- How competitive is it to get Airborne or Air Assault school during your summers within the program? SMC vs. Civilian?
- How hard is it to get a MOS like Infantry?
- Does doing Ranger Challenge help with getting the MOS you want? How much would doing Ranger Challenge and/or a SMC prepare you for Ranger School after commissioning?
- Can anyone do Ranger Challenge or is it tryouts? If so how competitive to make?
- If I am 100% certain I want to commission should I contract freshman year? Does that give any advantages or perks?
- Does doing an ADSO guarantee you a spot for whatever MOS you want as long as you are qualified for it?
