I just had the same convo with my recruiter. The air force are looking for medical degrees , technical degrees and applied science degrees. It'll be hard to get selected for ots unless you have those wanted degrees. Enlisting seems to be a easier route if you don't have them. Work 4-6years. Get your awards, make a name for yourself, and a must: get your degree. You can't become a officer without a 4yr degree. (Again make sure it's a wanted degree for the air force) Ultimately the choice is yours. Think long and hard.
