hello guys,
I am an incoming senior in HS applying to USAFA and I attend a gifted and talented high school within my county that requires a test and admissions process to get into. It offers a good amount of AP’s and honors, but since freshman year i have only taken two AP’s (world history and us history, and i did fine in them with A’s) and the rest of my classes are honors classes. Next year I am taking:
AP Physics C - Mechanics (hardest physics and quite possibly the hardest science too)
Advanced Russian Language (hardest russian course offered, having a straight 100 in both junior year russian semesters)
Honors public speaking (trying to fix to get honors english instead)
Honors Calculus (with a straight 100 in my two semesters in precalc)
Honors Career and Financial Management
However, My school has a 100% college rate and they go onto top schools such as Ivy’s and we ranked as one of the top schools in the country. Do I have to worry about my academic workload hurting my chances? Earlier in the year, West Point told me that since my school has these statistics of people going into top schools and having a 100% college rate, i didnt have to worry that much - does USAFA think the same thing?
PS: I have a SAT score of 1440 (740 math / 700 reading)
