    Girls State

    Be yourself and think before you speak, as first impressions go a long way. I don't know how it is for your girls state, but for mine, I showed up, made friends, wrote bills, was willing to volunteer, spoke my ideas clearly, and respectfully listened to others points of view. I didn't have...

    Tape Test

    I'm a female reporting to c/o 2019 in a couple weeks, and I am about 3 pounds below my weight limit after a significant amount of weight loss. I realize I could possibly be over the weight limit on R-Day if they were to round down my height. I had to take the tape test to gain admission and...

    Classes for junior year 2015/16

    A science course? Unless you have taken all the science courses at your high school, AP Physics or AP Chem would be a good choice.

    Letters of Recommendation

    USMA doesn't require LOR from coaches, although your congressman might for nominations. I know for my congressman we were required to have 2 LOR from a coach, teacher, principle, or counselor.

    1 on AP exam?

    Question about AP scores. College Board was a bit misleading when it said we could pick and choose scores to send, and I sent all my AP scores to West Point before I realized what I had done. I scored 3 and 4's on all my exams (Calc, Lit, and Euro) but one, I got a 1 on an exam last year...

    SLE

    I got rejected from SLE and ultimately got an appointment to WP. I went for an overnight last month and thought it was a much better experience than the Summer Seminar I went to at Air Force. Don't fret about not getting into SLE.

    Homeschool Candidates - What Documentation

    I was homeschooled Freshman-Junior year. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask. I was was part of an organization, and since they provided an academic transcript, I didn't need to provide any sort of course descriptions. I would highly recommend Boys State as well. I went to...

    still waiting

    Received my TWE today dated April 8th. Although I accepted my WP appointment back in January, it was weird going 6 months without hearing a word from Navy after completing my app (besides the transcript) back in November.

    C/D in Modern Physics

    No, I'm taking Calc, Chem, English, History, and Econ, my grades are fine, but I have an exam that's worth 60 percent of my grade coming up, so I discussed outcomes with my RC at West Point, and she said as long as I get A's and B's with maybe a C I should be fine, but if I got a D in one of...

    C/D in Modern Physics

    For West Point I was told if I got a D they would have to rereview my application. I'm assuming AFA is similar. Since you are already taking Calc 2 and a Physics class, it might be better to withdrawal.

    C/O 2019 Mailbox Stalkers

    Still have heard no news from USNA... I received my TWE last year early march... I hate to get hopeful since I would consider myself to be fairly average compared to some of the others stats.
