Is army ranger training tougher than marine basic training?
Yes. The Army Ranger's RIP (Ranger Indoctrination Program) is much harder than USMC Basic Combat Training. The final phase of RIP is spent near Fort Eglin, Florida, and involves a night time air drop into the swamps of Florida. - - - - - There are actually two "Ranger Training" schools, and both are tougher than Marine boot camp. Ranger School is a 61-day course focusing on small-unit tactics. It has three phases--the Benning Phase at Fort Benning; the Mountain Phase at Camp Merrill, GA, and the Florida Phase at Eglin Air Force Base, FL. Any combat arms soldier can go to Ranger School; it is required for NCOs and Officers assigned to the 75th Ranger Regiment. The 8-week Ranger Assessment and Selection Program replaced the Ranger Indoctrination Program. It's twice as long (RIP was four weeks) and twice as tough. Most guys do not fail RASP. They quit. Forty percent of everyone who arrives at RASP quits the first day. Eighty percent of everyone who goes to RASP quits before the end of the course. That school is no joke.

To serve in a Ranger Battalion, you must be RA - there are no Ranger units in the Guard or Reserve. As for going to the school and not being in a Ranger Batt., the same holds true - while it may technically be possible to be sent to Ranger School from an NG or AR unit, they don't get assigned the slots, hence, it doesn't happen.

What Army Ranger contract to pick if you want to be infantry but don't want to go to Ranger School?
Then you don't sign a Ranger contract. You just sign a contract for regular old 11B. Signing a Ranger contract doesn't send you to Ranger School - you need to be E4 or higher in order to do that - you go through the two week Ranger Indoctrination Program (now called something else, but I don't remember what), and, if you pass, you have the possibility of being assigned to a Ranger Battalion. In order to advance to Sergeant in a Ranger Battalion, you must first complete Ranger School and get tabbed out. In regular Army line units, Ranger School isn't a requirement, but it is a major advantage towards career advancement.
