i Got reclassed to a 25s recently and just started class. The required service time for the job upon graduation is 36 months. I only have around 23 months left in my contract. I don’t want to be in the army longer than I have to and the army isn’t meant for me. What happens if I refuse to re-enlist or extend? Will I be chaptered and what type of discharge?

I suggest you take the extension or request to have the extension waived. You might like your new job and change your mind. Also, it isn't that long of an extension. I think you are maybe jumping to a conclusion too fast. I hated the military for the first 3 years of my career and then realized it was great as soon as I started knowing what I was doing. You might too. If you think refusing the extension means they will let you out earlier that isn't going to happen. You might end up in a really terrible job for the rest of your enlistment --like a permanent drug testing monitor.

That depends on what "got reclassed" means.
