1. OML - order of merit list. Basically what things you do that the army cares about and affects your rank and what things don’t matter as much
2. PT - be in shape beforehand
3. Have good time management with school and ROTC
4. Not all schools have an equal ROTC program
5. Learn every task you can so that when they ask what job you want you know what you want and you are prepared. Being higher on the OML means more likely you get the job you want
Maybe a vid on tips on Ruck Marching on taking care of your feet
Nice great idea
Staying tune on that OML video!

So you said the degree you WANT is more difficult so you went with an easier degree, how do you plan to go after the degree that is harder? Or are you still going to go after it? If so, what kind of benefits do you plan on using while completing that degree?
It would have been more clear and helpful if you began by sharing your background. You were enlisted? How many years? What year in college did you begin ROTC? What program did you join? Results?
Do they still care about how many sit ups you can do, since it’s getting phased out of the routine?
Yes there will still be minimums and maximums.
If it is still the same as when I was in ROTC, the needs of the service come first in assigning branches and active duty. It was not known but when we made our choices for branches, we we told that Vietnam was winding down and some guys would get two years active duty and some would get three months. As it worked out guys who wanted two years got three months and vice versa. Also as far as branch selection goes, We had X number of guys getting a commission. DA sent down X branch choices. OML dictated mostly who got what. If you were on the bottom of the OML, you probably did not get the branch you wanted and you probably got Infantry.
not the same as we are in peace time and now infantry is the most sought out branch but cadets and not enough slots are offered
can I join ROTC at 31 with 4 years prior active duty enlisted service? was thinking about using GI Bill to go to school and wanted to know if I could get in the program. I have heard different answers from people
You’d probably need an age waiver but u can get in. I knew a guy that’s 33 with no prior service that got in with a waiver, so it’s possible. Talk to the ROO and they’ll should be able to help u out.
Look at how they have gone woke and actually need more people?
...see if you can get a waiver!
If i go to ROTC in college do i still have to go through bootcamp? and if it isnt a must is it still an option?
I did JROTC and yes you go in as higher rank in both enlisted and ROTC.
I’m soft like emotion wise I cry for no reason do you still recommend doing jrotc
@@x_aculitebs7905 of couse. It will make you a man or woman. Go for it.
@@x_aculitebs7905 JROTC is literally just drills and stuff, don't let dudes make it seem really hard. It's nothing like ROTC or the actual military
@@x_aculitebs7905You shouldn’t join the Military then.
Thank you for the video -- it was very helpful. I'm just starting the process of prep for Georgetown ROTC (research, fitness, etc.), and I was wondering if you had any resources for figuring out what job you want to pursue (like you mentioned in point #5)?
how many years should I work for the army ? And can I pick a degree on math and finances ?
What if my school doesn’t have a JROTC program?
I sent my son to a different high school for one period, for the 4 years, to a school that does have a program, we drove him everyday so he could attend JROTC
Did you transfer schools with an ROTC scholarship? Did the scholarship transfer?
me being a veteran and being a nonscholarship rotc student
I WISH I KNEW THAT I COULD USE MY GI BILL AND COMPETE FOR A SCHOLARSHIP SO I WOULD POCKET THE HOUSING STIPENED OFFERED FROM THE COLLEGE
I joined AFJROTC
oneshotter 123 for what school
lol get it!! make sure to join the military after !!!
@@soowie4599 I am I'm going to the marine corps
Do you know if it will be the same or different cuz of the pandemic
I’m in Army JROTC and a junior in high school thanks for the heads up
Damn, people do not know what ROTC is. Okay so for starters, yes, you do have to cut your hair to Army standards.
2. You do do PT (physical training) BUT you should be hitting the gym as much as you can outside of PT.
3. And i cannot stress how different ROTC is and JROTC. ROTC are adults ready to go into the military as officers. JROTC are Boy Scouts 🤣. The JROTC kids who end up going into the military are just “another requisitioned youth” 😂.
Underrated comment
Like what I don’t understand is that if I’m in rotc the I join the army do I start as an e1 or an 01
O1
how long were u in the program considering that you already have you associates?
I was in the program for 2 years i came in as an MS3
Thanks for this! im joining rotc this august! Go Army!
Hi Same here what school?
@@philipmoore2915 I’m attending cal state east bay in Cali but my rotc is at cal Berkeley
Hey man, since it's been a year since you've posted - how do you like it? Do you see it as worth it? Any recommendations to do prior to going into it?
If I joined ROTC in my senior year only, will I achieve a higher rank ?
negative
Whats pt? Whats it like to be in High school rotc?
Rozita 028 Physical test
@@theocattony i know that know its painful af😂💀
Pt is physical training
Do you have to cut your hair?
I assume not since they are not in the (army) they are not subject to military uniform code of justice.
Some programs adhere to regulations, others don’t. Do your research
@@vitoliciouscomedy bud the program can tell you to have your hair cut but under military uniform code they are not do your research nice try tho!
cadet sergeant here for the show sir
Live & Learn!
Which school is best for rotc
Depends on the branch
This guy looks like Gary Sinise

Why does that matter ?
