If he is going AECF, he will be an ET or FC. Since he is going in as an E3 he can put on E4 immediately after finishing A school. He can also take the E5 exam without waiting since push button E4 gets paid and advanced immediately. But do not expect him to make E5 for at least a year after he puts on E4 and that's on the low side. ET's advance really slow, it took me 4 tests to make E5 and that's considered faster than normal. Usually takes 5 or 6 tests for ET's. FC's it all depends on the type of FC he would get. They have better advancement then ET's but you are still looking at, at least 2 tests or more to make it.

Now for E6 it's 3 years after you make E5, you would have to get back to back EP evals to cut time off the 3 year wait.
