Well the "really, really long interview" I am referring to is our First Year in general. Instead of having a multi-hour interview when we applied, our first year can be considered as an interview as our performance will be critical in getting our trade choice. We also do have a real interview...

Agreed. I'm in 2nd year at Queen's and transferring to ROTP at RMC. I can't say anything for certain but I understand that they can and do validate 'some' university credits for electives at least. So perhaps you might not get direct credit equivalences, but you might have a bit more 'free...

Thats a good way to look at it Breezie. I mean for all the negative points regarding the new system there are some good points too. Even though I know exactly  what I want to do, I do think that the "really, really long interview" is a good thing. Its sometimes difficult to show your best...

Exactly. My girlfriend's father went through Royal Roads/RMC back in the 80's and said that it used be the same as next year. So they're in fact bringing back an older system (trade assigned 2nd year). He's an armoured officer (insists on being called a cavalry officer ;D) and he said how he...

Hahaha, very true Benny88... its a matter for people with much higher salaries and a few more bars  :salute: :D As for IAP after hours. I also think this wouldn't be feasible. IAP is an intensive multi-week course (8/12 week?? I'm not sure) so I can't see how it would be done after hours (in...

Both you, benny88, and Intelligent Design  make some very good points. I can definitively see how someone with their heart set on a certain trade can hesitate now that they won't know for sure what MOC they'll get until 2nd year. And how this would probably discourage some potential cadets...

Hello all! This is my first post at Navy.ca and I'm looking forward to posting a lot more more. As I understand it, it's more from an administrative standpoint. What used to happen is that individuals coming from the civi world would chose a trade based on recruiting material or friend/family...
