Delay enlisted yesterday, SEA PACT, some questions

[Just4Kixs]

Would it be better to have gone PACT-SN and strike hope for a GM or be declared some rating and submit a DAR for GM? I too am wanting this rating.

never rely on DAR, never rely on actually striking for the rate you want via PACT either. It doesn't work the way the recruiter tells you it does.

How many years active duty is for being a PACT-SN or PACT in general? Does that include the one year wait before striking a job or going to an A school? PACT SN sounds like a nice rating

PACT contracts are 4 years... this would only get extended if you strike for a rating that requires a contract extension.

I hope what you mean by requiring a contract extension are push-button ratings. Other than that, PACT-SN sounds perfect right now in my situation. Thanks!!

Highly unlikely to strike into something that would require an extension. Again, I don't recommend PACT program, pick something before you ship, it saves a lot of headaches later on.
