Goose,

Have I got some great news for you. While the USAF and the Navy might care about your grades, I can tell you from experience that the Marine Corps could care less...you just need to cross the 2.0 threshold. As a Marine fighter pilot myself, I have seen some amazing pilots who would not have gotten into the USAF or the Navy because of grades (or because they weren't an engineering major).

I can give you one solid piece of advice on tests, however. While you only need a 2.0, for any and all of the services, you are going to need to pass an Aviation Standardized test (AFOQT/ASTB). Here is a link to a website with some gouge and some good links to test prep http://www.fighter-pilot.org/articles.htm...these tests are make or break, so start studying now.
