Does anyone know if there is a way to change your MOS from dentistry to a different job before and/or after your 4-year commitment is over? Realizing I may not be as passionate about dentistry as I thought I was before starting school (current D2) and would like to possibly do a different job in the Army. I have always wanted to pursue something like aviation or special forces in the military, but pursued dentistry because it felt like the more "responsible" choice. Now I am not sure it is worth doing something that I hate just for whatever sense of security I get from this career path.
I doubt there is a possible way to switch before the end of the commitment as the Army is paying for me to become a dentist so they want a dentist. But I also wonder what it looks like for after the 4-year commitment. Can I easily switch to a different MOS in the Army? Or possibly do an inter-service transfer to a different branch in order to do a different job?
