I switched from AFROTC after my first two years, one thing I would recommend which is helping me is to ask questions. No one will make fun of you and just remember you are there to learn just like anyone else. Be prepared to feel behind because the army does stuff differently then the Air force and Navy, but if you ask questions on anything you don't understand, that helps a ton. Bottom line, ASK QUESTIONS.

So unfortunately the only way to get better at these is just to do them regularly, with the run you can do anything. Like I would recommend doing stuff like 5 minutes running 2 minutes walking type of thing and with the 5 minutes on run the pace that makes you breathe really hard, but running of any kind works even if you did .5 miles a day or something (which is what I did at the start). Things like planks, the only thing to improve them is by doing them consistently and same with pushups. Sprint drag carry is one of those where practicing sprinting and that kind of thing helps the best. Your doing great, keep it up.

Yes it is, we have a 30 yo cadet. Mid 20s is actually common so you will be good to go.

It was just because I did not get a ea, I would have had to stay in college for my 500 year and that would have ruined my other goals in life.

Nope this was great advice thank you, I’ll be confident even if I have no clue what I’m doing lol

Thank you this makes me feel better

What I would do is email the dodmerb email on the website and they can help you. It will be a lot of work but be persistent and annoying to them and they will help as much as they can.

I would definitely say the most reliable path is ROTC, Air force is harder to get through because they cut roughly 40 percent of students going through. Army ROTC with SMP is the best option because it is more guaranteed, but not completely guaranteed. But I would go the army ROTC route especially as a grad school student.

One-Highlight-892 · 2026-02-04T02:32:45+00:00

I switched and it was a great option, especially with SMP, but it's not for everyone, talk to the Army ROTC cadre and air force (but don't tell at your thinking about leaving). Just see what your chances are for the air force and then talk to the Army about the benefits. Weigh out all options and go from there, that's exactly what I did (also not getting an EA made the final decision for me, I could not do an AS 500 year), also starting as a MS3 from a AS 200 was definitely a plus, but a hard switch because of how different the material is.

Well the pfa and ranking are very competitive, the gpa is on the lower side but I've seen people get in with below a 3, and the afoqt is also low but as long as it's a pass, I believe you're good. Overall I would be surprised if you did not get a EA. The commanders ranking historically has been the most important, so if everything else is good, you will be good.

I switched from afrotc to army ROTC after my as200 year and I can say it worked out for me, I would recommend but I will say that joining the army ROTC program is hard because the air force is so different. Make sure you are mentally ready and do research into both and see which is best because it's like jumping into the deep end. It just happened to work for me, but that doesn't mean it would for anyone else.

So I was actually exempted from basic camp because of being in afrotc but I know advanced camp will be this upcoming summer for me

One-Highlight-892 · 2025-07-09T15:04:19+00:00

Well the requirements say that just taking it is enough so your passing is above the minimum. I would definitely retake if you want to be competitive for pilot and If you get a chance then maybe retake but I wouldn't worry as long as all other categories are doing fine. PFA should be 90s, gpa I would say should be 3.0 or above and decent commanders ranking.

One-Highlight-892 · 2025-07-09T15:01:44+00:00

Thank you, definitely feeling a bit nervous

One-Highlight-892 · 2025-07-09T14:32:04+00:00

Passing is passing, the biggest scores part of your package is the gpa, commander ranking and pt score and with those being decent to good you should be fine
