So are the other just secret clearance rates just as good?

They'll send you to other C schools not A schools.

Ah I forget to mention that my waiver for Nuke got denied because of my father who is a Chinese citizen. They saw me as having contact with him even though I've only seen him like once for about 15 minutes in the last couple years and before that hardly. My recruiter said that I should have no problems with the clearance for AECF though and it is almost a guarantee. I hope that is true because it would really suck if I can;t even get AECF!

You shouldn't have a problem getting a secret clearance.

kforbs, for C school, do you get to choose what NEC you want or they just do it randomly? Which specializations would be the most technical and involved with electrical and electronic ssytems?
