I'm an 18 year old girl joining the Air Force. Scored a 90 on my ASVABs. What kind of jobs etc should I look into?

I have an oppurtunity to go to college as well. I would like join right now, but would it be better for me to get a bachelor's and join as an officer? Also, if I enlist, is there any way I can become an officer and how long would that take?

What jobs are best for advancement and what will give me the best civilian jobs? Asked by amymm91 22 months ago Similar questions: 18 year girl joining Air Force Scored 90 ASVABs kind jobs Politics & Law > Military.

You should select a career field that interests you In the DB, you discuss interest in becoming an officer. Your ASVAB score shows that you could possibly qualify for an ROTC scholarship, which could pay for most if not all of college. When you graduate, you would then be an officer.

You would have had to have already applied to qualify for a scholarship starting in the Fall. You can apply for an ROTC scholarship after you enlist, but you must have 1 year in, 1 year on station, and be recommended by your commander. These are rare, but possible.

If you really want to be an officer, I suggest you do NOT enlist, and go to college now, even if it is a community college. Then you can apply for an ROTC scholarship next year. As for career fields, advancement requirements are the same for most career fields, but you should choose a career field that interests you, regardless of what kind of civilian job you can get later.

There is no way to know which jobs will be in demand 5 or 10 years from now. I hope this helps Sources: afrotc.com/scholarships/ .

1 I would recommend going to college first. The chances are that after four years of college you might have changed your mind about going military. And if not, you could easily become an officer.

Despite what you may hear from friends who are in the military, an officers life is not really easier than an enlisted persons. But it is less menial and you would make more money. If you are a "leader type" I definitely think that is the way to go.

I believe that the Air Force requires at least a bachelor's degree for officers. If you go in with only a high school diploma, your only other chance of becoming an officer would be taking advantage of the educational opportunities the service may provide, and that is a much slower process than just going to college and if possible going into ROTC. Of course if your grades are really good and you have good references and can get a congressional recommendation (which is easier than it sounds) you could possibly get into a military academy.It's tough, but it doesn't cost anything and your advancement in the military would be much faster.

And no matter what academy you graduate from, you can enter any of the services you choose as a second lieutenant. So if there is an opening at West Point and none at the AF Academy, when you graduate you could still go Air Force.

2 The 90 is a composite score. Which area did you score the highest? What are your interests?

They will pay for nursing or even an MD, but you will owe them a few years. They will also do the same for other high demand areas. The Navy came looking for nephew with a major in nuclear physics before his junior year.

You can talk to the recruiter to see what advice you can get for your military future. But be strong and don't get talked into signing up now if that is not your plan.

3 I agree with both Hermes and Pales: you do have options here. A composite score of 90 on the ASVAB is quite good and you should be proud. :-) You can enlist now and go through the enlisted ranks and eventually go to Officer's School to break into the officer ranks or you can go through four years of college and ROTC, obtain your Bachelor's degree, and then enter as an officer.

Upon graduation and entry into the military, you will still be subjected to boot camp and you will have to spend a certain amount of time as active duty (rather than Reserves) but you will bypass the enlisted ranks. As for what you can do, it truly depends on what your strengths are. You just need to figure out what those might be.

A great indicator, as Pales stated, is the area of you ASVAB in which you scored highest. What I would do is speak with your recruiter about what options you have based on your ASVAB scores. That is part of why they are there.

4 Thanks! Here is my score broken down: M 80, A 93, G 85, and E 82. If I enlist now, how hard would it be to become an officer later?

I am potentially interested in Nursing, but they gave me a choice of any job I want. I was thinking about a medical job or cypto linguist if I enlist now.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
