I'm considering switching from 35N to 35P or 35M because I am wanting to attend DLI for CM. Advice?

Do you have any personal experience form either MOS?
What are my chances with staying in a 700 series unit?
How could these differ in military positions and post military positions?
Which would be less likely to land me as a Janitor in a unit that doesn't deploy.

When you get to Monterey - study hard and enjoy the training. Korea, NSAH and/or Meade should be in your future if you are a 35P, unless you have a penchant for parachutes. Stay disciplined and maintain your DLPT scores, and keep track of your hearing records.

I don't know what a 700 unit is, I can only tell you that if you are Regular Army, you will PCS to DLI and then go TDY Enroute to your next unit which will definitely not be your current unit.
Those MOS's are used in every BCT of every division, in FORSCOM, INSCOM, and USASOC. You'll be assigned to the one that has a requisition with a report date 30-60 days after your graduation date. Hope that narrows it down for you. If you want to control where you go next you have to reenlist for a duty station of choice then you'll be able to choose where you go.
Depending on the language you request you'll need up to a 110 DLAB

Thank you I am scheduled for a DLAB in the coming weeks. I feel pretty confident about it.

SFC (Join to see), the "700 series" units (what I lovingly refer to the "700 club") are those INSCOM 700-series brigades provide Army cryptologic personnel to NSA/CSS SIGINT locations (Ft. Meade, Bad Aibling Station, etc)

Ahh ... the "700 Club" brings back memories (used to be a desk officer for those guys back in my days at INSCOM headquarters).
If you go 35M, your chances of being in the 700 Club are close to zero. They have a couple, but you're going to end up in more "deployable" units or at the echelons above reality units like the 902d.
35P can be thought of as a 35N with a language. As such, you're a SIGINT wonk that focuses on translating your learned language. 35Ps are very "700 Club friendly".
Regarding "where will I end up", Operation Military Kids of all sites gives a great run-down of the MOS and where they could be stationed. Check it out.

Thank you for the advice! I'm just personally terrified to end up like my buddy who doesnt use his language at Bragg at all. Hopefully I end up in a unit that deploys enough for me to use it
