i will tell you if you want to go active go active dont do reserves and think you can easly intergrate.

Yes im active and i enjoy it most every day

I know for MST you need a AR+VE of 114, I have a 115 but on the MK portion you need a 56 but I have a 55. Can I get a waiver from my CO or do I need retake that portion of the ASVAB?

I believe you can get a waiver for up to 5 points. So you should be able to request that.

I am looking into enlisting in the Coast Guard and MST would be my top choice for a job. I have a few questions on the MST field...

1 - Can a MST be assigned to a MSST, or the new MSRT, or a LEDET?

2 - I know it was briefly mentioned before, but where can a MST work in weather forecasting in the coast guard (e.g. at an air station?) To be honest, I've been looking at other services as well, and weather forecasting is one of my top choices for a career. The reason why is because I already graduated college with a degree in geographic science (similar to environmental science), and in the major I took a few classes in physical geograhy and meteorology. I really liked the subject a lot, and I would like to gain experience in this field so that if i choose to leave the military after 4 years, I would have weather forecasting on my resume that i could apply for a job in the meteorology field. So yeah, is there a good chance to do weather forecasting as a MST and where do those MSTs who attended C school for weather usually work at?

Thanks

ok im going to hit this quick.

yes a MST can be at a MSST not sure about the others as i havent looked at the billet selection lately.

Weather school is not that common for a MST. I know that they use to send them if you were going to a polar roller but not sure they are still sending people. Dont plan on doing weather as a MST it is more then likely not going to happen.

Dont plan on spending 4 years in the CG and get out if you want to be a MST as of right now the average wait time is over 2 years so you will be at 5 to 6 years before you would be eligble to get out after attending A school.
