Hello everyone. I was wondering if I could receive some advice from you all on what I can do to increase my chances of gaining admissions to the Naval Academy. Here's a little about me:
I am currently a sophomore at a strong in academics high school. I hold staff in AFJROTC. I have participated in color guard a few times but will be a ton next year. I am in the Civil Air Patrol. My grades are alright. My projected weighted GPA for the end of this year is roughly 4.0-4.05. My un-weighted GPA is roughly around a 3.7 something I believe. My class rank is around top quarter (I think, class rank on school computers are messed up so waiting to hear back fr0m my counselor). I have taken the PSAT and my counselor projects I should be able to get roughly a 1200 on my next PSAT (2 Part Exam). Will be taking the real SAT several times so should hopefully be able to get over 600 in each section. Over the summer, I will be attending a summer leadership seminar at smith mountain lake. I applied to the STEM program at USNA and will be attending that if accepted. If not I will be attending another leadership seminar, this is at The Citadel. I may be applying for more ROTC and academic camps too, also may do camps through Civil Air Patrol. Currently I wrestle for my school and will be starting lacrosse in a few weeks. I am wrestling all four years, will be doing lacrosse for three, and will also pick up cross country next year and do that for two years. I am in various clubs including BETA, will be applying for NHS next year. Will be working over the summer and will also be getting many community service hours on the side. My schedule next year is loaded with 8 weighted courses to hopefully boost GPA and class rank. Taking either 3 APs, 2 IBs, and 3 advanced courses or 4 Aps, 1 IB, and 3 advanced courses. Believe that I will do good next year academically as my mind is set on doing whatever I can to gain admissions to USNA. Also just as an extra little thing, I'm two years ahead in mathematics and will be trying to gain leadership positions in the clubs I am in. Thanks for reading. If anyone has literally ANY advice, whatever it may be, please list below. Especially what I need to improve upon. Willing to do anything to increase my odds of admissions so all feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks and have a nice day.
