Thanks Rocket! I have had a run of bad weather luck on my flight days. I had to scrub a solo cross country flight today, but I should be able to finish my cross country solo flights this week if the weather will cooperate a little. Then I have a couple dual flights in preparation for the FAA...

I saw this post and thought I'd weigh in. I'm a senior in high school about 3 weeks away from finishing my PPL (weather dependent). I have been working on it since late May. I don't know if it will help me get in an academy or get an ROTC scholarship, but like usnabgo08 says, it can't hurt...

My counselor sent my GPA in at 4.239. It's on my transcript and it's weighted. My school only reports one GPA. Cadet Command recalculated it to 3.7. I emailed an asked why it was so low and the response was that they calculated my GPA as 3.76, but they only use three characters and do not...

Thanks!

Does NROTC convert ACT scores to the SAT scale? Thanks!

AROTC parent and USNA1985, THANK YOU for the fast reply! I haven't had any ear issues since then at all, but honestly it's the only surgery I've ever had, so I thought I should list it. I saw on the USCGA site that middle ear surgery was a DQ and it worried me. I wasn't sure if that counted...

I had my adenoids taken out when I was 2 years old and I had tubes in my ears. That was 15 years ago, but the common DQ list shows middle ear surgery. Does having tubes once and your adenoids taken out DQ you if you have not had any problems in almost 15 years? Thanks!

Here's the chart that I think is being used, but again I'm not really sure which is why I asked. http://www.act.org/solutions/college-career-readiness/compare-act-sat/

Frenzymando, yeah they said that and it's actually up on my portal. It seems to correspond to the ACT-SAT 2015 Official Concordance Table, but different schools seem to do it differently which is why I asked. Thanks for the response!

Thanks a lot! I'm planning on taking it again in September. USMMA said they converted the English to 720 and Math to 780, but I had heard that USCGA converts the English/Writing score which is lower for me. I was just curious. I start AIM this weekend, so maybe we will get some Q&A time...

Does anybody know how USCGA converts ACT scores to SAT scores? I scored a 32 English, 34 Math and 29 English/Writing Combined with a 30 Composite. Thanks!
