I want to know if I am on the right track to get into the United States Military Academy at West Point?
I am a junior in high school and have always wanted to attend the US Military Academy, and I was wondering if someone could tell me if I even have a chance of getting in.
Right now the classes I am taking are: AP US History, JROTC, Hn PreCal, Hn English, Hn Physics, Newspaper, and AP Environmental Science
I have also already taken 2 years of Latin.
I have played both JV Soccer and JV Lacrosse for all 3 years. This year I am captain for the JV soccer team.
I have basically beaten all other cadets in PT, I did:
59 crunches per/min
21 pull-ups per/min
5 inch sit and reach
8.6 shuttle run
5.55 mile run
All through high school I have had decent grades. Freshman year I got all A’s and B’s. Sophomore year I got A’s, B’s, and I think 1 C. This year I am trying for all A’s and B’s but I think I might get a C.
Other things that might help me get in are: Eagle Scout, Life Guard, Crosby Scholars Program, and other clubs.
I am taking the SAT in December and I’m shooting for around a 1250 on just the reading and math.
I also think that I can get the political nominations because I know some politicians.
I just joined JROTC this year (my junior year) and I am the top shooter on the rifle team, and my instructor is running me for cadet of the year (or the semester, I can’t remember). It is supposed to be a high honor.
If you have any advise on how I can better my chances on getting in please respond or email me.
I think the class that I am going to get a C in is AP US History which is a college level class.
