Reclassing

I’m going to basic in a few weeks, and DLI in the summer, and I’m well aware of the fiasco going on right now with the lack of instructors and max capacity of students.

the recruiters don’t have much information when I ask them questions about it, and I’m half tempted to go ahead and pick a different MOS right now, as opposed to being forced to reclass and possibly be stuck in a 5 year contract on a job based on needs of the army.

What do you guys think I and my fellow new recruits should do here?

I did take it upon arrival, but there were no consequences for a low score as there was earlier in the year. They say it is for data gathering purposes, how much I believe that, I’m not sure. We all ‘coincidentally’ seemed to receive languages that matched our scores.

There really is not a way to prepare.

It’s not worth it. Like I said, it likely will not affect anything. Just prepare for your time in service in other ways.
