    Failing APFT?

    No, the only APFT that matters is the one at the end of the summer. If you fail the APFT (if you fail one event, you fail the whole thing), you get put in remedial PT, not kicked out. Just keep working hard. You'll be fine.

    Grades

    I didn't get all As in my High School career. In fact I would say I had almost the same about of Bs as I had As (Probably a few more A's) and I report in 2 weeks for 2018. They know your classes are difficult, You're fine.

    Performance During Beast

    I was told by a current cadet that beast only counts for about 2% of your overall military grade so if you don't do great it's not a big deal.

    Class of 2017 Profile

    Does anyone know when Admissions will publish the entering class profile? I understand that the last few entering classes had 66% with post high school experiences (enlisted, USMAPS, civilian university etc) before receiving an appointment. Does anyone have information about this?

What I do know is 29 candidates were selected for nomination to all 4 service academies this year (per his press release). We heard that 120 applications were submitted, not sure...
