I saw my recruiter today to pick my MOS and go to MEPS on the 12th to sign up. I wanted 15T, which was not available. My recruiter said that there was an 88M and that's what I picked. To me, that sounds boring. When I get to MEPS, can I change my MOS or is it a done deal?

Few things:
1. You are not committed to anything until you take your Oath of Enlistment and sign DD Form 4 (Enlistmemt Documents). Then is a bounding contract!
2. Your recruiter might get pissed of but that’s life, S/he’ll get over it. Make them work for their money, is your future!
3. As a reservist, you are limited by units based on your geographical location. That cool MOS you want might be available but 400 miles away!
4. As a reservist, once sworn at MEPS, that’s it! You are committed, no backpedaling from that moment!
5. Whatever your decision , make it quick!

Best of lucks on your future endeavors!

YES YOU CAN CHANGE IT!!! DO NOT TAKE THE 88M...If they're offering you that, then I assume your GT score is not a 110 or above...

My AFTQ was 32. Since I have my GED, I can only go reserve. My score was MM 110. My lowest line score was CL 94. Kinda sucks but it is what it is.

Until you sign that paperwork and swear your oath you can change it.
Call your recruiter, let them know you don't want to be a truck driver.
If they say 'no'. Go talk to another recruiter...from the air force.
