Guten Tag, So I've run into a but of a predicament with AP World and (eventually) APUSH. I will be taking them online since I don't want to drop my electives and still have to take more German, but I've discussed with parents and counselors and none of them advise this as AP classes shouldn't be...

Hey y'all! I was wondering if any of you fine folks could give me some feedback on this question I have. Next year for math I'm taking pre-calc, and after that I plan on taking AP Stat since it is the only math class I'm actually interested in. Senior year I have the option of taking AP Calc AB...

Hey y'all! I haven't been online for a while, but I'm back after a semester of hs. I'm currently a freshman. I'm looking for some advice as to what to do next, especially academically, but other places if you have any. Last semester I had a 4.00 weighted gpa and my rank was 27 out of 775. I took...

Hi! I highly enjoy playing trumpet and am now officially a freshman in high school. I've decided not to do marching band because I don't really have the time, money or sleep to do it. However, I'm still doing regular band and maybe jazz band. How would not doing marching band effect my...

So I've been exploring around some career options for after USAFA, and I realized that the SERE specialists are only enlisted. So I guess I have two questions: Why are there no SERE officers? What's the closest officer career to SERE?

I'm looking to get back into martial arts. I got my black belt in Taekwondo in 2019 (not a mcdojo), then COVID hit and I kinda faded out. This time I'm looking for something a bit better for self defense, and I was considering BJJ, Krav Maga or Judo until I saw this other new thing. It's called...

My birthday is in a few days, and I will then be 14. This means that I have 4 years to train as hard as I can both mentally and physically. While I know this question is asked a lot, searching cfa doesn't work for some reason because it's too common and short. So, what fitness plan would you...

In high school, I want to do marching band. However, as an eighth grader, I get to see what marching band is like on multiple experiences, and some of the high schoolers come by the school to help us with stuff. I'm starting to realize how big of a time commitment it might be. Because while I...

At my high school, they offer a program called the RISE program. It stands for "Re-Imagining Innovation, Science, and Engineering". It takes traditional honors/gifted courses in science, technology, humanities, and language arts and gears them more towards STEAM, giving me both the regular class...

In high school, I can either continue band (making 7 years of band through high school and middle school), or I can choose other electives. I know I want to do JROTC, but I only get 2. So do I quit band and do classes like Comp. Sci, Weight Training, Foreign Language, AP classes, etc? Or should...

Hello! I am required 2 years of foreign language for high school. My options are french, spanish, and german. I know I can take at least one year online (hopefully). I also want to learn morse code, but that may be too much on my plate. What would be my best choice for a SA, or my military...

I know it's a bit late (been here for a few months, but not super active), but hello from Georgia! I'm 13, a Scout, black belt, and of course, a science nerd, and I hope to graduate from USAFA in 2030. I'm extremely ambitious, but I keep setting the bar higher. Glad to see a place like this so I...

Is there a pharmacy program at USAFA?

Hi! I did Taekwondo and got a black belt, and I am a scout. From what I understand, many people who are accepted participated in varsity sports/got a varsity letter. So I have a few questions about that: What are the varsity sports, and are there any martial arts other than wrestling? What would...

From what I understand, the organization of cadets goes from Element, Flight, Group, Squadron, Wing, in order of size. Can you tell me how these are organized, who leads what, and how rank/class comes into play? Thank you.

Hi! I know this is inconvenient given the most recent activity on here (Congrats to those that made it, to those who didn't, don't be discouraged. Maybe try again? Praying for you!), but hear me out. I'm entering high school soon, and I need some advice on what classes and extracurriculars to...

Hi. I'm 13 and I want to go to the air force academy when I am college aged. I want to know what you guys think about this, as far as my chances of getting in go: I am an active member of Scouts, and I will hopefully have eagle done by the time I turn 17. I am a certified black belt in tae kwon...
