[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Within the first year, about half quit and don’t continue rotc even on scholarship (quitting before 2nd year don’t have to payback anything) and afrotc only about 75% are selected between 2nd and 3rd to go to field training to continue. It’s tough[/quote] You have no idea what you're talking about. Each service academy enters 1200 kids. Around 1000 graduate. That's hardly "half" quitting. [/quote] ROTC [/quote] ROTC is tough, tougher than the academies if you think about it. At the an academies you are surrounded by everyone doing the same thing. In ROTC you are a regular college kid who has to also do ROTC. I would think retention is cadre specific. I was also surprised that the Air Force ROTC kids can do 2 years then not be selected for camp. Ouch. So yes everyone should be impressed with these kids. [/quote]
