I'm currently a senior in HS and I'm looking for advice from people regarding college and what they think the best path is. My situation is like this: I never really cared about HS so I can't go to a university because of my grades. I did ok on my SAT's (1140) and I know I will do well in a college environment so my plan right now is/was to go to community college for a year or two and transfer to Rutgers or another college offering ROTC and do that. I am very commited to joining the Army. My previous plan was to enlist right out of HS but I changed my mind because I didn't see that offering any future for me if I decide that I want to stay in for 20 years and make that my career. So, from what you've experienced or from the things you've heard and seen, do you think that doing 4 years of college and ROTC and joining after as an officer is my best bet? Would it be easier to enlist and try to become an officer from within the Army? Nothing is guaranteed if I try with ROTC. One more question. What do they look at when you try to get into OCS as an enlisted person. I got an 86 on the ASVAB in case that plays a part in anything.
