I was in the army (Royal Engineers) for just short of five yrs. Depending upon your exam results and your selection training, will determine which path you will initially follow. I would advise raising your fitness level to a good standard. I found the army life very enjoyable but you must understand that its not for everybody. You are subjected to a high level of disipline and fitness regimes, but once completed life is very satisfing and rewarding. Basically go for it you have nothing to lose and you necessarily won't be sent on active duty or frontline conflict.
