Sounds good! I know I took the ACT like four times in five months before the deadline for USAFA applications came around.

Yeah, I was basically a captain last year, but unfortunately, our school only lets seniors be the 'official' captains. I don't think I'm anywhere near being competitive for running, our school is really small, and though we do well in our league, we focus mostly on academics. Thanks though.
Don't forget about this http://www.boysandgirlsstate.org/
If I understand things correctly, it has as much score value as a varsity captain in sports.
I suppose I should begin involvement in this thread. Does anyone know if CFA scores are compared from year to year?
I was selected as the first runner up for Girls' State, but the other girl will be going.
I'm fairly certain they do not. You will retake the CFA and they will toss your old scores.
My mile time has dropped to just over 5:00. .
Thanks. My mile time has dropped to just over 5:00. Also, good luck at prep school! I think I forgot to mention that earlier.
Your ACT makes me so jelly, I think you are a shoe in, thankful your not a LEAD applicant or I'd throw the towel in hahaI guess I'll add

I hope so. I'm competing with 3 other people from my school alone, but I'm hopeful.
I'm currently taking the 2 AP classes offered, and am number 2 in my class of 107, but since I've taken about 4 college classes through concurrent enrollment I should move up once I transfer my units. I have a weighted GPA of 4.45 and an unweighted of 4.0. I got a 780 on the SAT Critical Reading and a 670 on the SAT Math. I got a composite score of 30 on the ACT with a 34 in Reading a 26 in Math(but I'm retaking in October). I've lettered 3 times in Cross Country, twice in Track and Field, and run 5 marathons. I'm an officer in my AFJROTC unit and have nearly 800 hours of community service. I've been to Nashville to put on a relief camp and was selected to attend Summer Seminar. I really hope I'm competitive, but I don't know because I have no one to compare it to really, nobody from my school has ever gone to AFA. You sound like you're pretty qualified though.
Okay, five marathons as a high schooler? That can't be good on your body.
I guess I'll add
