Hello, I'm new to this forum. I was led to this sight by another Officer who told me this was a good site to check out.
Anyhow, I'm 22 years old and I will be entering my Senior year at the University of Kentucky, finishing up on my BS in Telecommunications. I recently took the ASTB and didn't do too well because I rushed through it and really didn't take my time on it because my friends were waiting on me. I have been talking to a recruiter to try to get into the officer program.
I just wanted to know if anyone knew anything about the Baccalurate (SP?) completion program and if it's still possible for me to enroll in this program. I have to go back to take the ASTB test again on July 28th because the Master Chief said the lowest score they wanted coming out of college was a 50 on the test and I scored a 42.
I don't exactly know which program I want to go into but I do know that I want to join the Navy. I really don't know much about anything but from what the recruiter has been telling me this is a hard offer to pass up since they will be paying me 2500 a month if i'm enlisted the the degree completion program.
I just wanted to know what you guys think would be a good field for me to go in with a telecomm degree. I'm more into networking with computers rather than broadcasting/ journalism. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I know I have more questions but I just can't think of them off the top of my head. I know they will surface later and I will ask them when then time comes. Thanks in advance.
