I've been talking with a recruiter and I'm going in the Army. For what, I'm not sure yet, I have to see what is available. I'm a little worried about the ASVAB. So I've been studying a lot for it. What do you guys think? I'm excited and nervous at the same time.

PS: I'm mainly worried because I want to do good for my self and my country. Fear of failure I guess.

I wonder what kind of computer/tech jobs I can get in the Army? After I finished my time in the service, wouldn't my experience help get me a job as a programmer? Say if I went in for Information Technology Specialist. From the description I read, it sounds like an Information Systems Analysts or (ISA). Imagery Analysts sound like it would be a fun job too.

We dont have an Army here, so I dont know what I am talking about, but...

Do you have any computer science degrees? I mean college or technical degrees, not certifications, sounds to me that you wont get a System Analist job if you dont have a degree.
Ironically, trained monkey could score well on the ASVAB.

It depends entirely on what they need and what you score on your tests. You are in no way guarenteed to get a non-combat position, no matter what the recruiter tells you. Even so, the Army could be a valuable experience for you and if you don't get killed, you might get a college education out of it!
