General field training info
Same here. It was about three weeks for me. My pay was a touch less, because I live in Oregon, which has its own income tax.

Good military/aviation books
I don't know if anyone posted this already in this thread, but "Once an Eagle" is a very good book. The paperback version is long though (somewhere in the neighborhood of 800pgs IIRC).

How many MTI's did you have?

?s on ADSC (Active Duty Service Commitment)
No. ROTC time isn't credited to time in service.

ROTC Scholarship information
There's been a fair amt of stuff on this already on here, but basically just don't be fake, speak well (enunciate, use proper grammar, and don't say "like" "um" or anything like that), and look the interviewer in the eye. Also, as for Type I's, if you're not going to be an EE or a Meteorology major, forget the Type I. You may get a 4 year Type II. Edit: forgot to say something

How to get ready for ROTC

Non rated Categorization

Medical School
Sorry, I basically forgot to ask my question, but Kayla answered it. She wants to be a pediatrician, but it'll be difficult to find a job?

Medical School
Hi everyone, I had a question about significant others and them going to med school. Has anyone gone through this? I'm commissioning in about a year, and I really don't know how this is going to work after graduation. Thanks for your help.

?s on ROTC Stipend
I only get $350 a semester...So I'm not sure...Twice that would make me a happy person.

?s on ROTC Stipend
Stipend's going up and textbook money is at $700/yr. (Which isn't too much, seeing as how I have four books for every class...and I have 6 classes).
