Khan Academy has a good, free SAT prep service. You can even link your khan academy account to the college board so it customizes your prep based on previous test scores. I took the SAT three times, started with a 1140 and ended with a 1380. Find a study method that works for you and stay...

Looks like you're a strong candidate, however, as other people have mentioned, there is no way for any of us to give you a definitive answer. My only advice is that actions are far more important than titles, meaning that the board will care more about what you did in a position of leadership...

Yes, I will be in NROTC - MO and I am on Scholarship. Sorry, probably should have mentioned that earlier. Thank you for the response.

In preparation for matriculation on August 17, I was wondering if anybody could share some insight on the questions I have. 1) I am currently wearing a Garmin Fenix 3 Watch, mainly for GPS tracking/pacing on my runs. The cadet handbook states, "Watch, black, athletic style recommended." Would...

Second cycle ends on the 13th of August, Matriculation day for VMI is on the 17th of August. Things are going to get interesting if I am selected for the second cycle.

I am on the fence regarding STP. On one hand, I think it is a great opportunity to knock out a difficult class like calculus (I suck at math, which explains my interest in the humanities) while also getting semi-acclimated to the VMI lifestyle. But on the other, I am an applicant for USNA, so I...

I recently received an appointment to the Virginia Military Institute, for which I am very grateful. As I am currently applying for an NROTC - MO Scholarship, I was wondering whether or not I should inform my Officer Selection Officer of this appointment. Will it benefit my application, or...

How steep are the hills? Is it a sprint up a steeper path or longer runs over a more gradual incline?

I just received my appointment letter to VMI! I'm ecstatic! It was dated January 18 (which is sort of ironic), but since I am posted overseas, I only received it today. Best Tuesday of my life.

From your perspective, how do the missions and objectives of VMI differentiate from that of the Academies?

Not sure. There is only one recorded appointment on the VMI 2020+3 Appointment Threat, and I am not sure if that individual ED'd or not - but that does not necessarily reflect all appointments being sent out.

I appreciate the response. Regarding location, I am in a unique position, in that my family is posted overseas on a diplomatic assignment, however, we still hold residence in NoVa. Therefore, I managed to schedule an interview/tour of VMI last summer, but due to my posting, I have been unable...

So I received an email of acknowledgement from VMI today, recognising that I had completed/submitted all necessary files as an applicant. Within that email, it also included a statement saying, "We will make every attempt to issue an admissions decision as quickly as possible but official...

I'm in the same boat. Submitted an application weeks ago, but never got a confirmation. From what i've read on this forum, people receive a notification at some point, but it's not a timely response.

I know this response is late, but just in case you're still worrying, i'll provide an answer. The file upload tab will remain "incomplete," and will not be changed to complete at any point. Once your PMS interview has been submitted as well as all other parts to your application, your selection...

I'm currently living overseas, so I can't meet a recruiter directly. I guess I can email a recruiter designated to my region?

Quick question. Are the NROTC Scholarship LOR's electronically completed, meaning I just plug in my teachers email address and be done with it, or do I need to contact a recruiter, get the forms, and then send them directly to my teacher.
