Thanks for the info Buck. I appreciate it very much.

Hi Buck. Just curious how many positions are left for Weapons Technician (Land) or is it closed for the year? Is April around the time trades reopen for the new year?

I looked around for this answer and in the CF grooming guidelines, it says you can maintain a shaved head but is that allowed in BMQ? My hair is bald at top. So, I'm not trying to be "hardcore" or anything along those line. I shave my head regularity with an electric shaver. (Not a hair...

Was the person that told you "Don't get your hopes up" Part of the staff of that specific unit? Otherwise, tell them to shove it.  The reserves are in desperate need of personnel. There's no reason to reject you. Just stay positive. 

Hi everyone, I'm 35 and I've applied to the Reserves from Regular force initially. I had changed due to really enjoying my current small business that I'm running. Anywho, I've passed the CFat and I've passed my fitness test this past week. My recruiter at the reserve unit talked to me...

Will do Thanks again!

Is "should" a yes? Just need to confirm before I register and spend the time/money to move forward. Thanks again for the reply. Most appreciated

From further searching (and discussing with my niece who just finished high school) I found there isn't a specific course called applied/academic math in Grade 12.  For Grade 12 Mathematics. I found course similar to this: Grade 12 MCV4U Calculus and Vectors – University Preparation MHF4U...

Note- Since you posted about grade 12 applied Mathematics, it would be in my best interest to take Grade 12 applied or higher and not screw myself over taking a grade 10 course due to a potential mispeak from the recruiter and still end up not having the adequate accreddiation

That makes sense in regards to the conversion matrix. For an update, I went to the recruitment center today again. I told him about how I really still wanted to go for Weapons Technician. He said I should take an online course to upgrade my grade 10 math to applied or higher and they put my...

Thanks for the very detailed outline. See, when I was in school I took General math in grade 12. I graduated in 2000. Applied to me would seem like "general" and academic would've been "advanced". I'm a bit confused. So people who went to school before the updated high school system are...

That gives me better insight. I will go and ask them what specific course(s) I need to take to be qualified. I don't want to be in the Canadian Forces just to "be in" I also don't want to take an alternate career choice I don't really want, away from someone who really does. It would be a...

Hi, I have a concern in regards to my trade choice with the forces. Weapons Technician Land I'm assuming I passed the CFAT as I was brought into a room for debrief about my trade choices and I was told I'll be expecting a medical exam and when that checked out, a formal interview. (I...
