Maybe, don't believe *anything* your recruiter says!
It would be useful to know where you stand ... are you in high school, college, or have you already graduated from college.
I took the aviation exam 30 years ago. Whatever you have available to study, you should study.
I failed the flight physical (allergies) so I forgot to tell the doctor that I had allergies when I took the physical to become a diver.
The US Navy translators are part of the Cryptologic Technician rating (well, at least they used to be)
To be a translator, you had to have perfect pitch.
Surface Warfare are the ship drivers. Information Warfare is part of Navy Intel. Aviators, well, they fly. Despite what you might have seen on JAG, if you're an aviator, you ain't in JAG, if you're in IW, you aren't driving ships. IOW, there is next to no crossover between warfare communities. You're not going to become qualified in one warfare community, and just decide to switch to another.
Some aviators will become qualified Officer of the Deck (a very few airedales will get a deep draft ship command in prep for getting command of a carrier)
If you're filling out an application ... mind your typing.
If you've finished college, you'll need to go to OCS (Officer Candidate School) to become an officer, regardless of the branch of service.
If you're starting college, one of the ROTC programs is the way to go, or the military academies.
