Really good. Within or above the typical profile of accepted candidates.

However, there is always however, we don't know (1) if you are medically qualified or not, (2) a mute point if you passed for CFA, but have to pass CFA, (3) do you know what #1 or #2 student in your high school scored on SAT/ACT and which colleges they are applying, and (4) your competition without your Congressional district.

On the surface you appear to have what it takes to get into West Point, but your competitors also get to vote on what happens.
 
1) I haven't done the DoDMERB yet but I don't have any issues that would disqualify me/require me to get a waiver
2) Have passed the CFA but I'm retaking it to get a better score
3) #1 and #2 are not applying to any service academies (we're all friends, we've talked--they're going for the Ivies)
4) No idea about competition within my district, but I'm really sure it's very competitive. I live in a hard state to get a nomination
