    You have no idea how much this video helped me, even the small info you gave in the beginning about your MOS. That’s what I’m currently trying to get now, have to retest since my GT score was a 101. There are NO videos on UA-cam about this job so PLEASE keep it up! Subscribed! ☺️
    Can you talk more about the training for the MOS, what stuff you generally learned and what we should try to know beforehand?

      If I understood correctly, your friend failed 68w? If thats the case, Im not going to lie... but if he struggled to do 68w coursework, he will not survive 68c. There are too much to know for this kind of MOS in so little time.

On our floor we submit our preference for the year and choose if we would like to be days or nights.. being active duty though, they put us where they need us. Right now I’m working nights since October.. we get the option to submit our schedule online but it’s not always approved or other army things come up. Most soldiers don’t put in a schedule and just work whatever days they schedule us.. which isn’t always bad. I have 5 days off in a row coming up for New Years week.

    • @martaorellana2842
      @martaorellana2842  6 років тому

      Jania S. Hi. To qualify for this MOS you must have at least a 101 ST score, and a 107 GT score on the asvab. And I do recommend this for anyone wanting a career in the medical field. Keep in mind the shortest contract time you can serve for this MOS is 6 years. But you will definitely learn patient care and gain experience especially if you’re assigned to a hospital after AIT. You don’t get to pick where you go for AIT and you don’t get to pick your first duty station. For the second part of AIT your entire class will be assigned orders to the specific location.

      Don’t be! just study. It was only phase 1 that was intense like that. The reason is because they need to weed out the people that aren’t serious enough. At least that’s how I see it. We had plenty of people fail out during phase 1. Looking back, I think it was everyone who wasn’t taking the program serious.
