Can you actually take science courses while you are on active duty, Army?  Are difficult Courses like organic chemistry available for the soldier?

Yes and yes.  The military offers many educational opportunities to their members, spouses and dependents.  You will find classes on base, off base at local colleges and chances to attend college full-time under certain circumstances.

It depends on the university. Your best bet would be to contact the admissions office of the university and see if they have a policy regarding military training. You may be able to defer your acceptance (push it back a semester or a  year) so that you'll be able to fulfill your military obligation and then start college.

I would recommend joining the army with radiology technician as your contract MOS. If it's in your contract, they have to do it, so make sure it's in there. Radiology Techs have to be assigned to units with X Ray machines, so you won't be going to a combat arms battalion for sure. It's a great job!

You can go in the military for things like this. My sister went to the Air Force to be a Forensic analyst. And you still dont need to worry bout  war

If you genuinely can't hack the AIT for the MOS you've selected, I believe you get to reclass for something that may be more your speed.  Otherwise, you get recycled to the next Co. coming through.  At least that's what happened in my unit.  I've actually never heard of anyone getting put out of the Army altogether.

Have you taken Mineralogy? That is the foundation for all future courses. At my university Independent Study classes, and Environmental Geology classes, are Senior Level classes that cannot be taken at the CC level.

I would go into the army AFTER, not before.  The army is not like college and you can not change your mind or branch of service as easily as you can change colleges.  If you get your degree you will go into the army and THEN decide about officer training.  If you are serious about your major you would be a great asset to the army after you have been educated.     You are wrong about not qualifying for scholarships as a transfer student,  talk to the college you want to attend.  If you want Columbia, try for it.  The worst they can say is no, but you might be surprised.  Do not plan your future without absolute facts.

To be honest, and I'm not insulting you in any way...But pick up "Chemistry for Dummies"...Or even "The Complete Idiots Guide to Chemistry".  I'm telling you, when I had trouble with chemistry, these books spelled everything out clearly.  They're rather inexpensive, as compared to some Chemistry text books you could buy online.  The books helped me pass Chem 1 and 2 with straight A's.  Now I'm on Organic 1 and these books still prove to be a wealth of information.  Hope this helps...

Even PhD's have a rough go of it in organic chem - would recommend PhD before looking for ajob.  DuPont would be great if you can get in.

You get paid while you're serving and you do get a sign on bonus and financial ops to go to college. Actually you need to get your GED prior to enlisting and you can go to any community college and find out if they have a GED class you can take and find out from them when the next class begins and plan for your enlistment after you complete the GED. The military doesnt take anyone without a high school diploma since the rules and regulations have changed over the last 30 something years. Since the war is going they're using reservists so if you want to stay home and be in the military go in as a regular in the military there are far more benefits you can have and there's more ops to travel to other places too since reservists are the ones getting called right now. Check out your options right now, but get your GED first before you enlist. It's easier that way so it's less stress on you later on in case they changed the rules to save yourself from taking two steps back instead of going forward.

Consider going to a college or university that has an ROTC program.  If you go that route you'll have a college degree in four years or so AND you'll be a commissioned officer in the military when you graduate from college.  Best of both worlds.

Talk to a recruiter. You attend college, but have to spend extra time in NROTC activities and courses while attending normal classes. After you graduate, you become an officer and serve a couple more years. \nYou stay in school during the NROTC program and are not sent off to a war if there is a war going on.

Yes you can get your High School diploma from Military school. The cost varies from school to school. Some are part of the public school system, but not many.

I was a biology major (unofficially) my freshman year, and I got a GOOD taste of what it is like. I can tell you right now the hardest class for most people is organic chemistry. It was hard for me, and I had no trouble in calculus, 300 level (for juniors) biology classes, and I absolutely aced the general chem classes. You have to memorize a ton of material, AND understand the concepts inside out. Actually, organic wasn't that bad, but I dropped it mid-semester because after reading 300 pages of chemical structures and reactions, I was bored to the point of insanity, and we all know it is hard to do well in something if you're bored. I did have a bad teacher too though.The biology classes seem like more memorization than anything else, so if you have a good memory like me, you should do well in them, but of course you need a basic understanding of chemistry to do well in biology. As always though, if you are truly interested in the subject (I don't think I was), you can succeed.

If you are on active duty the military can choose to try you themselves or let the locals handle it.\n\nShort answer:  Yes.
