@You "How do your West Point classes compare to your high school classes? If you were a college student before West Point, how do your classes compare to normal college classes? What's your major? How did you prepare for CFA/BEAST/ACFT? Are you expected to be "super athletes"? I heard rumors...

@CO2025 It is very company dependent but our company had a run, a ruck, and a couple weight lifting sessions before the plebes were officially on the team. Just don't quit and always give 100% and you'll be fine. As for male vs female, its obviously male heavy considering anything at West Point...

@Hope25ful First off, ACT and grades aren't the same for everyone or event that comparable. Just focus on doing the best you can do. That being said, I got a 32 on the ACT but keep in mind they look at the whole candidate not just their test scores. I have only ever gone through the one...

Fire away!

Ok great, thank you. I’m getting it checked out by a doctor tomorrow, so I will contact you after they make a diagnosis

I think people list it so that others can get a sense of the "demographics" of what % of accepted applicants have LOA v. LOE v. Neither.

to whoever makes the next thread, in my excitement I put the wrong date. I was actually appointed to West Point today, 2/6/20, like everyone else but forgot how dates work. Sorry about that haha.

Here they come....

1) leephi / DS / LOA / 12 Nov 2019 / Accepted / KS /Senatorial / Direct Appointment 2) Spartan19 / Self / LOA / 12 Dec 2019 / Accepted / IL / Congressional & Service Connected / Direct Appointment 3) wanlime / Self / LOA / 11 Dec 2019 / Accepted / NJ / Congressional / Direct Appointment 4)...

If you go on the overnight and don't like it, you will know for a fact you made the right decision and never wonder "What if?"

I don't know if it has changed in recent years or not but I was not able to start the DoDMERB process until I had finished my entire application (minus 7th semester transcripts).
