I am just saying the truth that no one else will say because of PC.

Yeah after spending a summer of West Point getting them into shape. With woman they could honestly care less about physical ability before the academy. Especially now where they are trying to get the academy higher percentage woman. I know girls who have gotten in that didn't even pass their CFA...

If you have issues with the run then you are real trouble. If you can't run a fast mile then that just shows you are out of shape. Don't worry about the averages and get in shape. Don't worry though West Point loves the woman so they will probably forgive a bad run time.

Even if you improve your ACT and get good grades in college like myself it still might not be enough. I haven't heard yet but it I will probably get TWE soon. There are other factors in play out of your control. If you found a university you would be happy at for four years then go there and...

Honestly you just need to run every day and that is the only way to improve running. Please work hard and don't take it for granted because there are qualified people like myself who really want to go and haven't gotten in who can easily run a passing time. Run with friends or talk to your cross...

If you did cross country then you should have the endurance to run a 2 mile run with no problem. What were your cross-country times? That should give you an idea of what your 2 mile time really is. If your worse case time is your actual time and you run a 10 minute second mile then you are going...

Honestly your 2 mile time is horrible as a failing 2 mile time is anything above 15:54. How is it that you passed the mile time on the CFA and your 2 mile is that bad. Also haven't you played sports? You should be more athletic than that and be able to run a faster time then you posted.

Is he from the Great Lakes region? I got the same thing from my RC in mid January as well and got a 3Q letter not long after. If he hasn't gotten an official letter on his portal saying he is qualified, then he might not have gone before the board. Or he might have and they just didn't bother to...

Yes it means you are on the waitlist. Literally 5 people have posted about this in the past week. It is all about waiting for an answer now.

They dont care what you wear. If your stats are high they will accept you. The kid who won my district showed up in gym clothes and still got it.

How am I self centered?

I hear this all the time and I want to be an officer in a military branch. I really want to go to an academy because I like the smaller class sizes and the fact that professors will actually know my name. In my own personal opinion I do not like ROTC because it is not as intense as an academy...

The problem I have with Civil prep is I have already taken Calc 1 and 2. What would I go and get an associates degree at whatever prep school I went to? West a point says they favor reapplicants and that is obliviously not the case.
