Thats one thing I've always wondered about.
At what point at the academy will people know if they are going Terminal or En Route? Is it chosen for you? Do you choose it?
I feel that I would thrive regardless, I just haven't decided personally which one that I would like to do most....Although I probably got more instruction in tower by far, with some tracon when I was at my cti. Not much exposure to en route but I am definitely considering it not only because of the money, but because I have a very good sense of direction. A map head if you will lol been reading maps since I was 4 or 5.
Also have a Bachelors in geography/minor in spatial science.
