Update to my thread: I just received my TWE yesterday along with a handful of candidates. And I was in a really bad place mentally. To go through such a rigorous process just to face the end like this is horrible. But I completely agree with everyone who said that all those in CPR are deserving of appointment. I certainly know that i am and i know that all of the other candidates who got a TWE are too. But it's out of our hands and the numbers just didn't work out. Believe me, I was in the mindset that I am going to USNA. I know I definitely gave it all I had and to see it fall short is heartbreaking. It's definitely tough, but after talking to my summer seminar squad leader (he was denied his first try as well), it really put things into perspective. It's all about how you react to this moment. Some let it get to their heads and feel down for too long, others see this as a reason to put in even more work to make themselves better. He said that this in no way shows that you are a bad candidate, but it just shows how many people wanna get in. I wish everyone still in CPR the best of luck. And I hope all those with TWE have plan B's that work out for them. I'm def gonna try for Class of 2022
