Hello, It has been my lifelong goal to graduate from the Air Force Academy and become a pilot. I am currently a junior in high school. I have not taken my ACT/SAT yet. I plan on taking them in December. I am an African American male who lives in a single parent home. I would like to know if I seem like a competitive candidate before I apply to Summer Seminar? Any feedback is appreciated.
