well why not go in non com, and look to gain you commission once you are in and have the quals? Commissioned route takes alot longer. You also dont necessarily need the same quals to become commissioned once you are in.

Not in my day.
Going from non to comm was very difficult. Nons were looked down on at Cramwell....the ones lucky to get there....and from my experience the nons that got commissioned turned out to be the biggest dickheads going.
