This isn’t accurate at all. The recruiters are all about the high scoring students. There are plenty of low scoring kids, but there are a lot of jobs in the military that require exceptional aptitude, so the recruiters are all over those kids.
The problem is high scoring students have other opportunities and low scoring students are encouraged into this life choice by a society that is designed to convince them its their only option.
Furthermore, the school is giving a stranger a list of my grades without my consent…
I remember a stark difference between how the army recruiter ignored me my sophomore year and then called me out directly my junior year. My schools Vice Principal had literally pointed out students he thought would be worth the recruiters time, matching name to face.
Recruiters will be all over the entire spectrum. For every 2 uber-nerdy signal corps goobs, we need 4 light wheel mechanics, 3 light infantrymen, 12 combat service/support roles, 4 POL types, 3 french hens, about 3/4ths of a chemical-corps-tester-er-tech, the list goes on and on.
