What Navy rating would you choose?

Question

I went to MEPS to join the Navy and took my ASVAB and scored well on it. I picked QM(Quartermaster) as my job. Do you think I made the right choice or should have picked something different? What rating would you have picked?

Answer 1

I'm 34yrs old with a BSc in Chemical Engineering. I'm not a US citizen, I have a greencard so I couldn't go OCS route. Got a 93 on ASVAB and enlisted. Shipdate Feb22. I got the undesignated rating "Seaman" going in as E3. I want to "Strike" right away and I'm trying to decide which rating I should pick: MM,IS,QM or BM? I'm thinking about both life after military or making navy a career. Which would be the best option for someone like me? Also, how realistic would it be for me to put in an OCS packet after RTC? Heard the cut off is 35. Any waivers?  Thanks in advance for your response(s)
