I have not seen the most recent class but everyone gets based in EWR initially. Most pilots are assigned the 737 and there are others that will be assigned the 756. Seniority in your class goes by age with the oldest being more senior. I would suggest that you bid the 737 as you will have a better quality of life. You can always bid up to a larger aircraft but you will have to wait 2 years to bid down to a smaller one.
Most 737 pilots can get advanced to IAH within 3 to 5 months and a bit longer to CLE. I have not seen anyone go to GUM in quite a while.
