NEC and picking orders

For FC's, it's really just the luck of the draw based on the orders you have to pick from. The group that picked right before me only had conventional NECs, and my group had a pretty nice mix.

However, as a female, I was pretty limited when it came to schools that had follow on orders, like FCS or Tomahawk. There was only 1-2 Tomahawk for females, and I think 4-5 FCS. It was irrelevant to me, as I wanted Spy, which did not have follow ons, but when I pick in C school, I will be more limited than the males in my class.

But, the better you do in A school, the higher you pick, so you have a better chance of getting what you want out of the group you have to pick from.

Again, all of this is only for FC's.
