To be honest, I'm really considering going Reserves and going to grad school sooner (even if I get deployed, I would be able to go to grad school before I'm 30 this way). This would be contingent on how I do when I take the GMAT though. If I pull better than a 720 or so, I'll take the LSAT and if I get over a 170 on that, well the world should be my oyster so then I'll go Reserves. If neither of that happens, active duty for me.

Though I would worry about how business schools would look at my lack of work experience. Being an officer should help but if I'm a Reservist, I wouldn't have much experience as a platoon commander or anything; just training.

I'm sure some jerk will come in here and laugh at the prospect of me getting a 720 GMAT or 170 LSAT but whatever. I'm not saying it will happen. I'll study hard and do my best and see what I get.
