    USNA vs. UPenn (Wharton) NROTC

    Benefits from doing a sport

    Hi, I'm sorry for the confusion and yes I meant perks for doing a varsity sport at Naval Academy. Also, would participating in a varsity sport still give me time to participate in other activities/clubs? Ex.BT.USN, well I never had any experience with crew/rowing. It was a sport I wanted to do...

    Validating Classes

    So I took AP Calculus BC last year and got a 5. I just called to send my scores to Naval Academy. Would I still need to take the validation test during plebe summer for Calc 1 and 2?

    My TWE

    Hardcharger, can you not speak for yourself? I asked you a question and you have yet to answer it. I also never said that GC44 was ever wrong and I agree with everything he says.

    My TWE

    Validating Classes

    I was confused about how validating classes worked at USNA. I've read that NA takes AP Scores for certain classes but I've also read that they do not do that and only let plebes validate classes after taking their validating tests. How exactly does this work? Thank you

    Submitting ACT scores

    I was wondering if I should submit my ACT scores. I have a 800 for cr and a 760 for math but I also got a 36 on the math section for the ACT. However, I did poorly in the English session. Would they consider my poor English score or should I just send in the scores?
