What is my day going to look like going back to MEPS for MOS selection?

Good day to all,
I'm prior service, and currently reenlisting.I'm going back to MEPS for Army MOS selection in a couple of days. I have a list of MOS's I want, with my top choice being 35M or 35W. I physically qualified about two weeks ago, give or take, so I won't need any other medical stuff done. That being said, anyone know what my day will consist of since I'm not doing a physical or anything? And does anyone have any advice for when I speak to the guidance counselor?

35W is just the recruit MOS for 35M. Once you complete AIT, you will be given 35M as your MOS.

Your day will begin bright and early, you will select your MOS and if you want 35M, be prepared for one hefty contract and you being required to select a language and having to take the DLAB. I’m an instructor out at Huachuca and was told by a 35M instructor that most, if not all of their new students have a follow on to DLI.

I want to tell you a story. When I enlisted I maxed the ASVAB but the fvcking recruiters told me all that is available was Infantry and Armor. I said bullshit and they finally gave me a list of like 30 different MOSs. They fvcking lied to me. They should rot in hell.
