What does that mean?

This makes it make a lot more sense thank you. I'm concluding getting a detail to another branch is not a choice so it's probably a good idea for cadets to select branches they are best suited for as their top choices.

Thank you. IDK about WP but I do know someone, ROTC, right now who spent 6 months working at a recruiting center and is now in Ranger school.

Thank you for making this easier to understand. So on branch night even those who are assigned a support branch such as quartermaster, finance, etc., may be switched to a combat branch after they do their quartermaster, finance, etc., training? For example someone who branches quartermaster...

I am looking for some information regarding how the army branches are different. I can find a lot of information online describing the branches but after my DS graduates and he goes to his branch what will he really do? For example is a graduate who is assigned finance immediately working on...

Okay - thank you.

And I can find all the other videos on youtube - thank you again!

What a great resource - thank you :)

Oh dear, don't quit, not during BEAST. Quit after if he's sure it's not for him but the mental stress of BEAST puts the new cadets in a mental space where they really aren't capable of making life changing decisions - this is why they make leaving a process. Here is a little list that I foudn...

I know there are 17 branches and I can see what they are but .... what are the jobs within the branches? Is there a site to see that? I am more specifically wondering what jobs are in quartermaster? If my DS chooses that branch what would he possibly end up doing for 5 years? I...

Is it then that it's not as good anymore? I was told it is now a 401K plan instead of a pension.

So here's thinking ahead - does the Army offer a retirement/pension plan? Someone recently told me they do not anymore.

I don't know how you rate over all but your SAT score is very good. The GPA probably could be better. They are also going to look at your athletics and leadership. Varsity athlete, team captain, national honor society officer etc. and of course the CFA score. Where you live is a factor too. If...

We have AT&T and the reception can be spotty. It also depends on where I am when my cadet calls.

https://www.westpoint.edu/sites/default/files/pdfs/ADMISSIONS/Admissions%20Timeline.pdf Maybe this will give you an idea about the process. LOA's are very nice but very few receive them so not receiving one doesn't mean you're not going to get accepted. Regarding getting accepted - applicants...

Thank you for sharing. That is so interesting .... I've heard people say how the WCS score is calculated is a mystery and this proves it's impossible to figure out completely.

May I ask if your DD is a recruited athlete or if you are from a small congressional district? My DS had a 1310 and was told it needed to be higher so he took it again, (and again).

This is great too, thank you.

This is great thank you.

Trying to learn about branches. What would a cadet who chooses quartermaster do?
