Hi Everyone!
I'm a sophomore in highschool and I have an interest in applying to a few of the Service Academies, however, USAFA is currently my top choice. I know that in high school, they look for varsity letters and athleticism. I compete in my school's track team, however, I'm on JV with a very slim possibility of moving up. I also am a part of my school's Color Guard, and may do bowling this year. Outside of school I participate in Tae Kwon Do, which I have done for 7 years (almost half of my life), and I have obtained a 2nd Degree Black Belt. Though I do not emphasize in "sparring", I teach others and compete in Poomsae "forms, and also demonstrate self defense and board breaking techniques with my team, along with basic weapons such as Nunchaku. Academically I have a high GPA (about 3.7) which I plan on bring up soon, I take all of the hardest classes I can get. I also participate in a few groups and clubs at my high school, and will be leading a few of them my senior year. My question is, how would this all add up on a USAFA app? Should I do more?
Thanks!
P.S What is the average mile time for a Cadet after BCT?
