Welcome to the forums, I come from a family that has a large military history as well so thats cool.

I hope you get to be a ranger, I heard that it is really hard to pass those kind of standards, not my kind of stuff, I just liked being a engineer.

Keep a good clean record and graduate from highschool because they are tightening up on entrance standards.

Back before the Iraq war and the huge increase in the army it was actually somewhat of a challenge to pass BCT, we had a 10-15 dropout/recycle rate in our company for each of the 4 platoons. But then the army needed every body it could get their hands on and the standards went to crap and everyone started passing BCT.

Sixthform.
compulsory education stops at 16, then your choices are work, sixthform to do A-levels and usually progress onto university, a modern apprenticeship, or college, which is more or less a more hands on sixthform.

You can join the army at 16, or do 2 years of A-levels to join as an officer.

GCSEs allow you to do most typical jobs, Alevels and college courses let you do more complicated/higher paying jobs, and bachelor's degrees from universities allow you to do professional jobs.

I see that is very different compared to the US.

I was in highschool up to and for a time while I was 18. However I got to join the national guard when I was 17. I didnt know you could join that young in the UK.
