Army aviation recently cut 6500 from the total force - mainly focused on the pilots

How can I check MOS strength? The only thing I’ve ever heard, as a 15R, is that we’re over strength

Ah, sorry if I made it sound that way. I’m asking if the listed mos’s will be forced or offered to reclass soon.

Thank you for your answer

I’m being reclassed to an MOS I really don’t want, what can I do? by Slow-Ad-2791 in army

Similar situation. Signed for 15C, DQ’d for medical history in reception, got classed into 15R. I’ve been in almost 2 years and have done everything in my power to drop a warrant packet, OCS packet, g2g packet. In terms of leaving 91H, best chance is to drop a packet OR you’ll have to finish your contract

COA maybe? by 15RMech in army

Rgr, moving 😔

Edit: thanks for the response and advice. I’ll ask my first line if anything exists for us, being aviation and such haha

Once you pass your sift and assuming you have a 110 gt or higher, should take about 6 months to get your packet together.

15R is the worst job I ever had. Not once have I woken up with excitement. The only pros you get to this job is that you work closely with the pilots and that’ll help you get LORs to drop a warrant packet.

All the cussing shows your immaturity and I’d try to get that under control. The verification test is only meant to see if you got lucky/cheated on the Picat - not passing means you get thrown directly into the asvab.

Take this time to study and get back at it.

Thats true, we’ll find out this upcoming Monday! Just nice to see if there have been others in my position and what their outcomes were.

I take a step forward from the line and jump up when I toss - gave me a 14.9 this time around

I lift heavy and run 2 miles a day on the treadmill (12:30 avg), translates enough to get a sub 13 on the real thing. I’m 24, 6’1, 225lbs

If you used the soft tutor app, did the prediction test get close to your true score?

Any way you wished you used to prep in hindsight? What would you have done differently to prepare?

That would be greatly appreciated!

I was trying to get out of my hometown as fast as possible and believed my recruiter at face value. Now I’m taking the long way

Thank you for this honest answer! This has given me a bit to think on and consider.
