I can only speak about Kansas Boy's State. But my school has zero money to spend on things like that so my counselor and I located a legion post and they paid half of the fee, I had to pay the other. But I was the only one to go from my class of 170, so my counselor could solely focus on...

Just as an update I have confirmed with the Academy that those scores are passing. Thanks for all of your inputs!

I took my CFA this last week and these were my scores: 72ft bball throw 15pullups 8.5 shuttle run 54situps 75 pushups (Max) 6:43 mile. Other than my situps everything is at or above average. Can anyone who has been around for a while speculate on whether they believe this is a pass or not...

At summer seminar this year I had a conversation with the Lt. Colonel in charge of the Med school process. Because of the extensive core curriculum of USAFA you can major in just about anything and then use your electives to take the remaining couple of science courses necessary. There is a...

Can anyone shed light on the process of going to Law school after the Coast Guard Academy. I.e. # of slots, how competitive are those slots, what is the service commitment after. Any information will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for everyone's opinions. There may be a way I can kind of do both I won't be able to do the show but there are some other, smaller opportunities for theatre performance that I could do concurrently with tennis. Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

Sadly I have already discussed that with both my coaches and director and since the practices and rehearsal are at the same time I won't be able to do both. Thanks for the advice though! Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

I was wondering if anyone could give their knowledge and opinions to a question I have. I am currently a junior and have played Tennis for two years, even playing some varsity last year. My issue being that I am also involved in theatre and would like to do the spring show which would conflict...

I appreciate everyone's input I would be class of 2020 but I'm sure these figures will be similar. My top two choices would be USNA and USAFA so it sounds like those two are just slightly more competitive based simply on numbers of applicants. Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

Does anyone have any first-hand knowledge of the competitiveness for nominations to USNA in the state of Kansas (4th district specifically)? Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

I appreciate the advice specifically on the med school side of it. And I will do everything in my power to get a 30+ ACT or High SAT. I truly believe that medicine is my calling I've spent hundreds of hours in hospitals and it all greatly intrigues me. I may change my mind during my time at...

In the State of Kansas they don't push for foreign language it is not a requirement to graduate nor a requirement to go to any school here. With that being said I do wish I could take another year of Spanish but due to the low enrollment in Spanish there is 1 teacher for 1 Spanish 2 class. And...

If all goes as planned I might actually be taking a 4th yr. Of math, AP Calc wasn't sure if I could a couple days ago. And hopefully I can still be competitive even with only 1 year of Spanish and maybe a year of German and nope not a female. Thanks for the input! Sent using the Service...

I forgot to mention in the original post that I most definitely will be applying for summer seminar. Not that it necessarily matters but I will be majoring in chemistry my ultimate goal is to go through the academy and then get the HPSP scholarship. Yes I understand this is incredibly hard to...

I appreciate everyone's input on this subject. I do understand that you can't tell me for sure about my chances but I'm sure all of you have a better knowledge of the process and norms than I do. As far as nomination I live in the 4th District of Kansas, so I do not live in a highly populous...
