<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>SGT Jon Conover, I was a 27D before I commissioned, but I went AIT almost 10 years ago. Biggest thing with AIT, make sure you study the specification when you get to the Article 15s and Courts-Martial. You miss place a comma or put the wrong word in somewhere, you fail the test, -31 points. It's still the same for my understanding. And Fort Lee, if you've never been here, Richmond is a nice area, get out and enjoy it.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>What is your current MOS? Why do you want be a paralegal? The course itself is not difficult. You just have to be detailed and accurate when taking the test. Which means taking your time and double checking your work before you turn it in.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am a 27D that got out of AIT in January. One of the biggest things that came as a shock to me was that, even though you learn so much in Paralegal School, you don't know anything. You get out there and you realize, they didn't teach you how to put together each type of packet, and that even though MJO can be great, it generates chapter packets with a lot of mistakes and things such as that. Getting through the course in and of itself is not difficult if you pay attention, take notes, and ask questions. This MOS is very detail oriented. Just take in all of the knowledge you can, and your unit will school you on the finer points. I could go on and on, but I'll spare you. Overall, this is, in my humble opinion, is an awesome MOS to have.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Make sure you know the NCO creed and try to do OJT before you re-class. I was a re-class as well and being an NCO you will be expected to know your crap when you get assigned to your new position. Most commands will not know that you just re-classed.I hope you get an awesome NCO to work for/with. Good luck.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am currently a 27D. The most important thing that they teach you in AIT is attention to detail. It is very important to get critical information correct. Like the LT said below need to make sure that you check the SPEC the wrong Spec means the wrong charge which is considered a critical error worth 31 points. SSN, name, and offense dates are also critical errors. As an NCO you will be expected to learn more but the good thing about the job is that it never quits. Most of your experience will be in the military justice section. In our MOS you can be tasked or assigned to do multiple jobs not just military justice. Some of the jobs are legal assistance, Trial Defense Services, Claims, Foreign Claims, Operational Law, Detainee Ops, Administrative Law, Contracts, MEB paralegal. You have to take it slow and make sure that if you need it ask for help. Two of my battles are instructors right now and they are good people SSG AD and SSG Graves. The regulation is your friend and you just have to read it. Researching is a critical tool that we use everyday so make sure you can think outside the box. if you have any further questions just shoot me a PM not on here very much
