Question about MOS 0651

[Tiwoodsta]

Hello Marines,
I have a quick question. Does this MOS require any math in the learning process? If so, what type of math?

[Tiwoodsta]

If I must say why I'm concerned about it before I get an answer. I'm not to good at advanced math, so I don't want to choose a MOS that I will have a hard time in.

Im in that field. It involves some math. Nothing to advanced. But it is definitely a very tough course either way. If you have addition questions feel free to pm me.
