Not that I Value his opinion much, because he's been thriced divorced, and he has a faux hawk that looks half-squirrel half-muppet. I had originally planned to go to the Foreign Relations program at Georgetown University, but, I'm reaching my last year in the Army, and I wanted to try something challenging before I try to embark on a career in the CIA w/ in the paramilitary wing. Maybe I'll succeed, maybe I'll fail, but I'll definitely learn something about myself in the process of the SFAS course, and whether I'm fit for this kind of work.

take care,

Jorj:

I think that the people you want to work for would not want you discussing it on an internet board.

Why on this earth would you go to SFAS if you have no intention of going to the SFQC?

Finally, you need to fill in your profile a bit and introduce yourself in the proper place before posting again.
