Does anyone know if it's still like that? I'd love to know how long CTNs are taking to class up. Is two months normal?

Any CTNs here comment on C schools at all? I know what the rating card says, but I'm just curious if you ended up going directly to C or had tor wait, or not at all.

TIA

I do know when I was in A school a long time ago that reservists class up before everyone else. they get top of the line. I'm not saying that applies to everywhere but I had a few ET reservists in my class and they waited like 2 days to class up. I believe they do this because they don't want to pay you active duty money for longer than needed.

I'm going to enlist and am going for CTN. (I know the woes of job locking). I have a degree in eng and scored a 99 on the practice ASVAB. I think I'll qualify...
My question is, from enlistment to BC, what are the ave wait times? 4 mo? 6 mo? Am I correct in assuming its based on your rating classes and security clearance or am I completely off base here?

Thx in advance for feedback

You can wait anywhere up to a year. Most people tend to wait 6-9 months, but it depends on when the openings are for your A school
