Is joining the US army reserves a good move?

Question

im wanting to be a surgeon, and i was going to enlist as a combat medic. Im thinking about joining before college and serve throughout college and med school.

also, will being in the Army reserves as a combat medic during college increase my chances of being excepted to med school?

will the army pay for my med school?

Answer 1

Well the army will pay for a good deal of it 20k for college,20k for student loans, 0 to 20k cash depending on what package you take. They offer stabilization which will keep you out of war for 2-3 years depending on the package. I recently signed up for the reserves and i dont regret it. The biggest advice is dont sign up for the benifits or the college money do it deeply because you want to serve your country.  

Answer 2

YES YES YES. The army will pay for med school. Sign up for e-army u. I had a friend that was a ranger. He trained with the british airborne infantry and the german sf dudes and spanish and french foreign legion. Its worth a try
