Can the professional take longer than expected and is it worth it to wait even if I prefer active duty?

Are you applying for a direct commission program? or just want to be a 73A? If you aren&#39;t applying for a direct commission, you will need to attend OCS and at that point, you will provide branch preferences, and depended on how you do, you will be respectively placed in a branch.
