I'm a senior and I'm applying for all of the ROTC scholarships and all of the service academies. Unfortunately, I'd never even heard of the service academies until the end March, so I kind of had a late start compared to most. I was just wondering if I would be considered a competitive candidate or not, and what I should work on for next year's application. Here's my resume:
GPA: High School: 3.78, College: 3.68
SAT: 1270 (I'm taking it again in December; if anyone knows any good SAT prep stuff, please send them to me! I'd like to get at least a 1300 on my next try)

*Going for Captain, but no one knows if we're going to have a team this year. I don't know how other sports choose a Captain, but we usually vote on it because we're kind of like a mix between a club and a sports team.
Please be honest, I'm looking for anything and everything that I could at college to make me more competitive for the service academies, USMA specifically.
