First time post, first time on this site, and quite honetly first time that I am getting serious about going to OCS. I've thought about it, oh, most of my life, but the time just feels right and with a job ending in November (I work on a very popular U.S. Senate campaign) I want to begin the process NOW.
I've read most everything on this site and you guys have been great about answering most every question. I'm curious as to the timeline of going to OCS. Take me for example, I just now want to join. I know about the test I have to take, the physical readiness I have to be in, and the other ins and outs.
My question is how long will this all take? Let's say that I go to the recruiter tomorrow and say I want to join. When should I expect to take the academic and physical tests?
There are a lot of considerations to look at, but I'll be out of a job in about a month or two and want to see if I should even consider looking into another job (if only a temp job) while preparing for OCS.
Thanks in advance!
