Hello! I'm currently waiting to start my sophomore year at a Jewish School. I am extremely determined to work my butt off in order to get good enough grades to have a competitive application. I am in the highest English and History classes, Honors Algebra 2 (One math class is taking Elementary Functions this year. I am seeing about getting into that class.) I am also in Honors Chem, and a special STEAM program offered by my school. I played soccer and lacrosse for my school last year, and this year I will play lacrosse and swim for my school. This year I will also lead my school's 9th and 10th grade TSA team. My problem is this. I know that the USAFA looks at the courses available, and compared that to the courses I took. Since I go to a Jewish school, we are required to take Hebrew (The language that Jew's use), Jewish Studies, and Tanakh. I did ok last year in Hebrew, but I think that with my newfound source of motivation I can do even better this year. I also got straight A's in JS and Tanakh. But my JS and Tanakh placements are based on my Hebrew placement. My Hebrew class is about the 3rd or 4th highest. SO I'm wondering, will my placements in Hebrew, Jewish Studies and Tanakh hurt me? Thank you for your time.
