need some insight about Seaman PACT

I've been in the navy a little over 9 months. I was originally in the nuke program but was released from it about 6 months into the program because I couldn't meet the rigorous academic standards. I was then rerated as an Air Traffic Controller but during my flight physical, my pre-existing eye condition (strabismus) was determined to make me unsuited for this rating. Because this is my second "school drop", I've now been reassigned to the Seaman PACT program per Navy regulations.

What is the program like?
I got a 93 on my ASVAB and my conduct record is fairly clean (not a troublemaker, etc). How much will that effect when and what rate I can strike for? Will it also affect what my typical duties aboard my ship will be as I attempt to learn a rating "hands on"?
