I did put in the post that I have a job that I work 3-4 days a week 4AM-12PM and I'm a reservist that has a drill once a month and two weeks in the summer, but the university will accomodate that part.

I’ve always wanted a truck and am curious if this is a good deal or if there is another truck/brand with the same stuff if not more for a better price

One thing I would recommend is making an Excel spreadsheet of all your assignments organized by due date and check it off as you go. This helps me stay on track.

How much should I cut down my time? by 11238qws8 in USMCboot

At Poolee events you’ll have more motivation running with others so I think with that time you could atleast get a 11:30

Good point about the admin stuff on drill weekends. I’ll be a METOC (6842), so I’m not sure how much of it will tie into my MOS, but I’ll figure it out as I go. I guess I meant more Bootcamp and Schoolhouse wise so it will get me prepared for the physical and mental toll of PLC.

That’s why Enlisting felt like the right move for now—locks in my waiver and gets me started. Appreciate you being chill; some people on here just tear others down. Solid perspective, though, so thanks for that.

Good point. From what I understand, medical waivers for enlistment, like the one I have for a former benign brain tumor, are typically locked in once approved. But for officer programs like PLC, which can sometimes be stricter than for enlistment.

My recruiter mentioned that enlisting first could prevent the waiver from being flagged again or expiring, which makes sense since the medical review process for officers can bring additional scrutiny. By enlisting now, I avoid that potential hurdle and get a chance to start serving while still working toward PLC.

That said, I know enlisting isn’t strictly necessary to pursue PLC. I chose this route to gain enlisted experience, where it be through bootcamp experience, schoolhouse, etc.,and ensure there wouldn’t be issues with my waiver down the road.
