And once you get back after 2 years, you will have forgottten so many details - it will annoy you. Plus once you are done with service, you want not really feel like going back to school right away - but with option 1 you will be forced to do so. With option 2 you create a real option! | |

In that case your best option would be to talk to the labs you're interested in working with and ask them for their opinion. I'd guess it would be fine since everyone has to do military service, but that's just my guess. You could also apply now and try to defer, but a two-year deferral may be difficult. Also: a gap before grad school is better than a gap between grad school and a postdoc. | |
