JAG opportunities

Post by Pnut » Thu Jan 14, 2010 7:13 am

I'm considering applying for JAG. Does anyone know of any potential benefits for applying for one branch over another? I'm currently leaning towards the Army because they have an ROTC program available near campus. The fact is that I want to take time to give back to my country. I understand I would have to take a pay cut to do it (as opposed to going into Big Law).

Are you at a T10 school or something?

That should keep you busy for a while
+1. That thread is enormously helpful. Plus, there are a few regular JAG posters on there with good info.
