Where to go?

[dark_reaper]

I am currently trying to figure out where to go to. I am a pub 2 applicant but did not get selected and I scored a 73.9 on my test, naturally I was not supprised.

After reading through the forums, I assume the geo pref will come out at the end of the month or early next month and I would like to prepare. I try talking to both facilities here at Jax, but most guys are old and dont know squat.

What states should I choose since I am qualified?

North/South Dakota
Memphis, TN

 

[Raydon]

LA and AK

Wyoming...

places where no one else is going to apply.

 

[Tony Montero]

Guam.

guam seems like a cool place to live. do you really think that it would have a low representation in the geo prefs?

I lived there as a child.
It was fun for us as a family.
Probably would suck if you were there single.

I may try that in my next geo. I got refered for my last one and my geo were AK and WA.

what would be my chances of getting a spot in FL or CA? i know here at the orlando tower they are understaffed and they have several guys that are eligible to retire here this year so they will be even further understaffed. but i see FL as a key place where alot of people would want to apply for along with CA. so im wondering if maybe i should choose another state instead.

I was always curious what it was like out thereI was under the impression that it was pretty much just the military base on the island and not much else. I know they have a macys (long story), but thats about it .Am I way off there?

I'd definitely select a level 12

Bout right. It is a great place if you like the beach and don't mind snakes.
Not good surfing- there is a reef around most of the island.
Mild waves, but sharks mostly keep to the pacific side.
I recommend getting scuba certified and learning to shop online
