Hey all,
USMA Class of 2024 applicant here. I’ve been looking at the WCS scores and percent composition of the application, and I saw that athletics is worth 10%. I am a physically fit person and expect to do well on the CFA, since I’ve looked at the average and maximum scores. However, my official athletics participation in high school has been severely lacking. I’m a varsity member of drill team and I play intramural soccer, but these are the only *organized* sports I’m in.
I feel that the academics and leadership portions of my application are strong; I scored a 33 on the ACT, have a 3.9 GPA, am in the top fifth of my class of 609 students, and will have taken 7 AP classes by the time I graduate high school. I attended Girls State, am a member of NHS, am a squad leader and state qualifier on the Debate Team, and am the Group Commander of my school’s JROTC unit. Will my lack of athletic participation ruin me, or do I still have a chance if I do well on the CFA?
