Specialization and Clearances

So after A school and moving into C school, which fields would require a top secret clearance? Would they pick you for it and if they do and cant get cleared, what happens?

There are a bunch of specific NEC's requiring Top Secret. If you can't get it then they'll send you to a different school. For ET's there are a few comms and radar NEC's that require it and for FC's tomahawk is the top one.

So are the other just secret clearance rates just as good?

They'll send you to other C schools not A schools.

Ah I forget to mention that my waiver for Nuke got denied because of my father who is a Chinese citizen. They saw me as having contact with him even though I've only seen him like once for about 15 minutes in the last couple years and before that hardly. My recruiter said that I should have no problems with the clearance for AECF though and it is almost a guarantee. I hope that is true because it would really suck if I can;t even get AECF!
