Hey guys, so I have my heart set out on joining the Infantry (as infantry soldier) when I graduate highschool (I’m in grade 10 right now). I’ve kept my mind open and looked into vehicle tech, combat engineer, and med tech, but nothing has interested me as much as infantry soldier. My problem is post-secondary. I ideally want to apply early in my grade 12 year, hopefully get accepted around graduation time, and to go BMQ around late summer/fall (I know the chances of that are slim, but that’s just the ideal situation). But I don’t know what to do about post-secondary. If I had to go to school, I would be interested in something such has heavy mechanics, yet I’m not very interested in vehicle tech in the army. I know it’s important to get an education while you’re young, but I don’t know how to go about that, because I want to join the regular forces as infantry soldier, but don’t know how I could do that, and still get the education I need. Any advice/opinions will be appreciated! Thanks!
P.S. The way I’ve always thought it is “I’ve always hated school, and I’ve always wanted to do career in the forces, so that way I won’t need post-secondary”. But I don’t know if that’s still a valid option to be thinking.
