I am planning on joining the Navy for EOD later this month, i took the ASVAB scored enough to to join but not for the job I wanted. Which is what brought me to this site I need help preparing for the Navy EOD pipeline any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Also I've been training for a little over six months already but I wanted advice from someone who actually been through the process. I'm not ready.
 
Welcome to the site. EOD is highly demanding in the academic arena and requires an almost otherworldly level of attention to detail. Your initial post leads me to question your suitability for a job with those demands. Good luck.

I appreciate your feedback not positive what about my post would make make you question my suitability for the job being that it was my intro I do appreciate your honesty. However if you have any advice about the pipeline that would also be helpful, from the research i've already done i'm confident that I have what it takes especially academically I just don't like to do anything half-hearted or half-ass. Thanks again though
 
I was also concerned about the security clearance. I'm sure my intro isn't the right place for any of this I'm new to the site this just seemed like a community that could help or would at least want to help

The point is that your posts lack proper grammar. If you can't even use punctuation and capitalization, what makes you think you can perform in the EOD world? You say you have confidence in your academic ability, but you wouldn't even pass an 8th grade English course with what I've seen so far. Perhaps your statement about not liking to do anything half-assed should be revised.....

So your advice is to work on my grammar. Well I guess if that's all you can give me right now i'll take it. I do have confidence in my academic ability and i'm sure I don't need to revise anything but my grammar like you said. I'm use to people denying my abilities and I over come every single time, I do and get what I want regardless of what anyone thinks or assumes that is why I think I can perform in the EOD world. However if you are navy EOD i guess you would know more than me huh? As far as my grammar i'll happily work on anything that needs improvement. So thanks again for your input!!!

CDG is correct, and you are in an area where everything counts. Hope you find this site to be of value, many do.

So far I have, I realize that I might need a lot of work to make it through the pipeline and achieve my goals which is why I came here. That is why any feedback is appreciated. I just want to be as equipped for the challenge as possible. Thank you!

We all miss things from time to time, you are not alone. Being spot on is important in many things, EOD in particular. Welcome to SS, Carter_50. There is much that can be learned here.
