Pick what you love, just make sure you know what you're walking into for the next small chunk of your life.
Actually, Aviation seems to be the way to go. A lot of the rates are open for E-4 and still very decent for E-5.
I advanced to E-5 (currently frocked) with a 40% advancement rate! AM3 is still in the 70-80% range along with AT3. AT2 is "low" in the 20% I believe.

Still, as they say "choose your rate, choose your fate". The quotas will fluctuate and have their highs and lows. In general HM and MA are two popular rates that have very low percentages (probably due to their high number of people).
