No you really don't have a choice.. you will put down what jobs you would like to do and based on manning and your scores, you will be placed somewhere. Its a gamble. If you plan to stay in after your first enlistment is done, you can cross-train.
I wanted to work on jet engines initially. After talking to all my buddies who do and visiting shops to drop off parts.... I'm glad I don't. The ones that are halfway into cars lack motivation due to keeping the jets in the air.......... Long hours depending on your mission.
I also totally messed up on the math section at Meps, so that had something to do with my placing. I'm a vehicle operator and I like what I do. The convoy thing in Iraq and Afgan blows at times.. but its good money for me.
goodluck chuck
