As a split op heading to 88M AIT, what can I expect at AIT (e.g. privileges, phone, etc.)?

I’m a split op and I attended Basic Training at Fort Jackson last year and leave for AIT as an 88M in September, I was just wondering if I could get any feedback on what to expect a t AIT and privileges I’ll receive, such as being able to use my phone etc.

I just completed AIT with 58th Trans B Co. It's not bad at all - after Gold phase (when you pass the Module A test in week 3) you'll get your phone on the weekends and your laptop all week, but only if you're in good standing. That includes passing your APFT, no negative counselings, and passing your room inspection. We get on post weekend passes from 0900-1500 and 2 off post passes from 1300-1800.

It's too easy, if you pay attention and do what you're told, you'll be out in no time.

When I went to Fort Leonard Wood, it was basically a continuation of basic, only a little more freedom.

hey man, I went through 88M AIT in Alpha Co. It was great. basically, do what your told, and don't suck at driving. Forget what you know about driving and just try to listen to every little thing you are told. if one instructor doesn't quite connect, don't be afraid to ask another one.
