Hello. Im 19 years old and have no qualifications to my name. Im going to college this year to do my gcse's and then im going to do a 2 year course in public services which will give me the qualifications to be an army officer. Im wondering though, by the time I finish college I will be 22. Will i be too old to apply to be an officer?

The maximum entrance age for Officers is 28, in certain circumstances 29.

 Also go out and get some volunteering as it always go down a storm,   Also try get some type of being a Leader, Such as Cubs, Scouts and etc.  As a Officer you are in a Leading Role.   Just remember you could be with people who applying that a Team leader and has maybe 25staff he or she is having to care and etc for.  Which somebody comes in with no Leading Experience you would maybe have go down to becoming a Lower Ranks if you want a job in Army or any Armed Forces.
