My daughter is now an upcoming Senior.
She has very good scores in the following areas:
SAT - 1570/1600
Class Rank: 4th out of 535 Students
GPA: 4.0 Unweighted (5.52/6.00 Weighted)
AP - Score of 5 in all subjects that she has appeared so far except Physics and Comp Science
She has also been in Marching Band for all of High School and is in a Leadership role during Senior Year.
Started an Organization for Tutoring kids for free and it has had a very good response.
Her aim is to be a Doctor (in all probability Surgeon). She got an email from West Point Admissions imploring her to apply and that's when she started looking / researching for West Point and is super impressed by everything.
What I would like to understand is her Career options once she graduates from West Point (assuming she gets in). Will she be able to attend Medical school immediately after completing under graduation OR will she need to serve in the Army before she goes to Medical school? Are there any restrictions around what she can / cannot do after graduation? Is there any commitment that she has to fulfill? She would love to go into Medical research as well working for any Army labs etc.
My apologies if this topic has been covered in the past and if someone can point me to those threads, then that would be much appreciated.
