I'm currently a junior in high school and would like some advice on becoming an AF pilot. I have researched all the different options and I am most interested in AFROTC or the ANG. I am not interested in the academy because I would like a traditional college experience.

So here is the dilemma. I have heard the odds of getting a pilot slot through AFROTC are much better than the ANG. Though, I have heard active duty is terrible.

Which way do you guys recommend? What are the pros/cons of these options?
