    Timeline

    If he has not taken the PSAT, that would be a good idea. I know that the application for Summer Seminar asks about that score and it is used to help determine how "competitive" an applicant might be (MIGHT BE). Can't remember the rest - but my son is a Doolie now! Summer Seminar was a...

    SAT Advice

    I also agree about the ACT. My son had a lower than he wanted SAT CR score (he tends to be a slow reader and that was the issue with the SAT) but on the ACT he got 34 in English. He is now a Basic at USAFA - Good Luck

    Intelligence

    Although I have no idea what most military intelligence officers major in during college, I would definitely say that a foreign language and foreign studies, political science, behavioral science, social sciences and history would be excellent courses. All of the above (except perhaps the...

    Get first letter from your Basic?

    Another upbeat letter Okay, for those of you still waiting for a letter, my generally writing-lazy son has sent #5 to parents, one to grandparents and one to younger brother (who is working at a camp). He has actually managed to remember 3 separate addresses! In his most recent letter he...

    Okay, got another letter today and it was in the self-addressed envelope I had sent my Basic (Ford from Cobras D). He was glad to get our mail (his letter was written on Tuesday night so must have just gotten first batch that day). We have been sending postcards and letters faithfully...

    WebGuy Site

    Thank you RPT1981 I'm the parent of the grandson you were to say thanks for and I am feeling a connection with all those photos. Webguy is a dynamo! How does he do it! If you talk to him again continue to send praise and thanks, he deserves it (and so does his staff and FAMILY)
