Im a high school senior and will soon be getting my congressional nomination most likely from both my senators and my congressman in order to be an official candidate for the United States Air Force Academy. Will having 3 nominations raise my chances? Here is what I currently have working for me...
Eagle Scout
4.2 GPA
4 years of Varsity Cross Country
1 years of Varsity Track (will be 2)
Great Physical condition
AP English Classes
4 years of Latin
Started my own business at 14 (If that even counts for anything)
Top 10% in class
Class Rank- 26 of 350
Junior Class President
National Honor Society
LOTS of community service
Here's what's NOT working for me...
ACT-25 (Reading-23 Math-25 English-24 Science-26) I am taking a ACT class and will take it again in Dec. and hope to raise them to a 26 or 27.
I am hoping that someone can tell me where I stand. Do I have a chance? Is there just no way because of my test scores? Im looking pretty good? Anything really. I would also like to know what i can do to improve my chances (besides raising test scores, I already know that). I would love to hear what anyone who has experience any of the service academies has to say. Thanks for the help.
