Making Recruiting Great Again
For sure, but you can still toss SWO-intel as a top option with two follow on's? If someone is only putting SWO-intel down, they clearly haven't spent enough time browsing this forum to know you should fill out your options as competition is no joke.
I ask because originally my recruiter told me I could not even apply for IP as I lacked calc 2. I pointed out PA where it states "preferred" not required and was picked up first round. Some individuals might not know to push back on that sort of thing. I know that padre's recruiter is essentially telling him he shouldn't bother applying at all due to his waivers. I think this is a mistake and unless hes absolutely DQ'd it should be left up to the board to decide not the recruiter.
Great to know about SWO's who redes to IP - thank you!
I think you're trying to compare the active duty/OCS process against your/DCO experience. For DCO IP, I'm sure you had the work experience (whether civilian, military or both), education (i.e. a masters degree) and did well enough in the interviews for the boards to brush off the calc piece.
