  • The Coast Guard is one of the most selective services to join due to size. Today I speak with a Coast Guard recruiter about the minimum ASVAB requirements to join as well as how selective the Coast Guard can be.

    I got a 70? 72? On my ASVAB, and my recruiter tells me that if I’m 5 points away from certain jobs they can waive you into the job/rate, just FYI. So don’t be discouraged if you didn’t get the perfect score, maybe you were really close and they will make the exception if you’re 5 points away. But in that case, you’ll really need to prove yourself and excel in all areas especially then, don’t let yourself and the service down.

    Hola! Weird question! Can you go A - School pregnant? I'm about to join, I'm married and would like to have children, I would like to be Yeoman but my asvab score was 43 too low to choose a job, Im from Puerto Rico Island so my first language is Spanish.. I study hard but still get a low score,... I'm 26 and I'm wondering if with the time I get pregnant will affect me to go A - School. Gracias Thank you!!!! Be bless

    Greetings Julian, my name is Daniel. I and planning on enlisting in the Coast Guard after I graduate next year. As a newbie at all this I wanted to ask a question that has been on my mind for a bit.
    I want to be a part of the Icebreakers/Ice Patrol or something along those lines. I heard in one of your recent videos about A School where you can kind of go and learn about the career path you want to take or at least what is available for someone. Anything you can tell me about that? My honest dream is to be a Coast Guardsman so it is not a huge deal but being part of the icebreakers is something I've dreamt of doing. Anything you can tell helps
    God bless and Semper Paratus ⚓🇺🇲

      You might be able to get on an icebreaker. put it on your dream sheet in a school and if you dont get it there than choose a rating where your chances of getting on one are higher. its just a job though, not a career icebreaking

    • @awsomeman62
      @awsomeman62 4 роки тому +2

      I’m stationed on a ice breaker out of Cleveland as a non rate right now. Other than the polar star you can put down D9 and ask for an ice breaking tug. There are several in the Great Lakes. It’s not a bad gig. I can’t say it’s what I wanted to do or planned on but for a first unit it works out. Feel free to ask me any questions you might have on ice breaking and I can try to help you.

    Well its either this or the army, If you have poor grades through high school can you still join the coast guard even if you have a high ASVAB score? I saw that the GPA you need is like 3.7 and I don't have that. and dont think I will get up to that.
