Good : You learn a lot if you apply yourself. You will spend a lot of time for 3 1/2 months doing some intense studying. Push through and you will be better afterwards (might even get some job opps from SANS)
Bad : If you have not done much IT security in the past then you might feel overwhelmed from the course work. Prepare yourself now before class and it will help you out later.
Ugly : Army seems to be letting this MOS fall into the dirt as it tries to build it's 17 (cyber) series. It is a shame because you learn a lot and it seems to be wasted while in the military. Outside the military however, you are well setup for a great job.

Do it, cyber is the new big deal in the DoD. Not only will it set you up for success in your career, but it will open up many doors outside when you are done with the military!

SGT (Join to see) I know WHCA is looking for 25D's. Might be something to look into when you reclass. I sure have enjoyed every minute of it.
