Even if you qualify, you don't hold many cards unless you have something special to offer like speaking a rare language or having a medical skill. The recruiter isn't going to be beating down your door to offer you a cool guy MOS or duty station. You may end up at Ft Bliss washing trucks.
OTOH If you have something to offer that they need, anything is possible. My buddy went through the Q Course at 42, but he was a prior service Ranger with a max PT score and a Master's degree. Plus they were fighting two wars and needed experienced guys they could throw into the fray asap.
