I am currently at 5.5 years TIS, and wondering if you have heard of an E-3 going through A school and then immediately reporting to C school. Thanks for any info.

It is not totally unheard of, but not very likely. When they say 4-6 year mark they really mean Time in Rate. Having said that, even YNs can get picked up for Flag Writer right out of A school, and that is one of the most selective programs in the entire Navy. So it ~can~ happen.
