Not if you got in...

I doubt you would get much more than the statistical guessing average
(~25%) on the ETST (a test that is a prereq for Navy electronics
training)


Why would I want Navy electronics training?



Not to worry. You wouldn't qualify for it anyway.



You mean, my soldering and assembling a half dozen Radio Shack kits
(from the Crown Street store) while I was in junior high and high
school, my ability to take completely apart and properly reassemble
outboard motors and lawnmower engines, and my A's and B's in algebra,
geometry, chemistry, calculus, and physics in high school wouldn't have
done it for me? Damn! Then I guess I would have had to go to college and
not join the navy. Drats!


Did you actually understand how those "kits" worked and how to find
which part was bad when they didn't? If I showed you a wave form,
could you identify the circuit that created it?
