personnel training
hello asked:


I recently joined the navy. My current job is EM(electrician’s mate). I will be 2 classes short from having my BBA in accounting and Financing before I go to basic training, since the school is online, I plan to complete the Bachelor’s degree after “A” school.

My questions are, because I wil be really close to having my bachelor’s should I change my rating to PS, since it is more related to the degree I will have?

What is the contingent in the rank PS? Are there a lot of people doing these jobs?Would this make me getting rank or OCS harder. If not, would the fact that I have a degree related to the rank stand me out compared to every one else?

If I do not change to PS and maintain EM, will my education officer, when I am assigned a base allow me to finish my degree even though there is nothing to do with electricity?

In case I decide not to follow carreer in the NAVY(I doubt it), would the PS job help me with my BBA in Accouting and Finan
