What are the odds I have to reclass when I go AD?

Switching NG to AD but I want to keep my current MOS of 88M. Recruiter says there’s a chance I’ll have to reclass and I wanna hear opinions.

You'll find out the options when you get to the MEPS. Anything else anyone says who is not your Recruiter or the MEPS is purely speculation and BS.

Depends on available jobs at the time you go to MEPs.

88Ms are always needed. I doubt you'll have to change your MOS.

That’s bullshit there’s always a shortage of 88m

Three MOS are usually offered and a guarantee....Cook, Transpotor and Infantry. As stated above you shouldn't have to reclass from 88M.

Good luck.

Well never underestimate yourself, you can do what you want, and everyday you learn something. Don’t lose the chance of something else only because you want to stay in your MOS. If maybe better than you ever thought.
