Hi guys. I am a 2025 high school grad looking who is really interested in serving my country in the armed forces. Plan A is obviously attending a service academy followed by plan B of going the ROTC route. I am a 2 sport athlete (cross country, Baseball) and am a captain on both teams. I am currently enrolling in a Brazillian jiu-jitsu class. I am currently testing for the Mitchell, and I am one of the commanders for the color guard in my CAP unit. At the moment, I have a 3.9 GPA, am a member of NHS, and am active in a couple of school clubs. I have attended the USNA summer stem, USNA summer baseball leadership camp, and the USAFA baseball camp. I will also be applying to all of the seminars for next summer.
Now for the downside. I attend a very small rural school that does not offer advanced courses. I have taken the ACT twice and my best score was an 18 with a superscore of 19. In order to help remedy this, I took 2 math classes at the local community college this past summer and I am currently taking one this semester. The reason for this is twofold. First I want to improve the strength of my diploma and secondly to help increase my ACT. I am also using the available materials on the ACT website. My question is, have you guys found anything that really helps boost the ACT by a significant margin? I figure that I need to increase my score to at least a 28 to be competitive in the academic area. Sorry for being long-winded, and thanks for the input.
