Hi everyone,
My name is Jacob. I am a sophomore in highschool right now with big plans for my life.
I have dreams of either going to West Point or Annapolis for college someday. My ultimate goal in life is to become a Navy SEAL and i am very dedicated to striving for my goals.
I need help deciding what college would be better to attend?
If I go to West Point I am planning on getting my batchelor's degree and spending my 3 years minimum active duty as a cav. scout. Then after my term i would go into the Navy and go out for the SEALs.
I have pretty much the same plan in mind if I went to Annapolis except I would serve my first 3 year term as a marine.
I have a brother and 2 cousins that are in the Army and have all been in Afganhistan, they all gave me the same advice to do something regular for my first term before i try to go for something as advanced as the SEALs so i could get some experience and get a grasp of what i want to do.
Their advice is very helpful but i am hoping for some outside opinions, what do you think i should do? What college do you think i should attend?
Please feel free to ask me any questions about more of my thoughts about the subject.
Thank you.
