Hello Service academy forums!
I am currently a junior at a competitive private high school, and was hoping you all would read over my application and give me some tips on how to improve it! (constructive criticism please). Sorry in advance, but I will be very thorough as to get the most help possible.
3.92 weighted GPA, top 20-15% of class. (Just an estimate as my school does not rank, but probably a more conservative than ambitious estimate)
ACT-
Superscore- 33 English, 32 Reading, 28 Math, 25 Science - 30 Composite
1st attempt: 32 English, 29 Reading, 25 Math, 25 Science - 28 composite (this is the one I was accepted to SLE with)
2nd attempt: 33 English, 32 Reading, 28 Math, 24 Science (low I know) - 29 composite
-Will be taking again in April
Athletics: (big sports school even though not many kids, per the many JV teams)
-Varsity Soccer 9,10,11. Captain Junior year
-Jv lacrosse 9, 10 (moved up to Varsity but no letter)
-Cross country 11
-Black Belt in Taekwondo: National Champion, gold in Junior Olympics, multiple state championships (did not participate in high school but still feel is important)
- I was also on a travel soccer team for a couple of years both before and in high school (2nd in state)
EC's:
-Member: National Honors Society 9,10,11
-Vice President: California scholarship Federation. Running for president next year 9,10,11(vp)
-Member: Mock Trial (debate) 10,11
-Co-founded a sports babysitting company- made over $1000 profit in under a year
-Was just chosen as the delegate to Boys State
Volunteer:
Over 200 service hours. 130 of the 200 are for people in need
Accepted to SLE in February
Thank you for reading this far!
