Hey all,
I spent last semester at Northwestern Preparatory School on a Falcon Foundation Scholarship. This semester I plan on taking a class that my local university offers called multivariable calculus with linear algebra along with second semester chemistry and probably physics III. These are all classes that I should have a fairly thorough understanding in by the end of the semester if this semester is anything like my experience with these subjects in the past. Therefore, I believe that I will be able to place out of a lot of these classes during BCT. At NWP Major Schantz, who is the only F-22 demo pilot and went through ENJJPT, advised us to be careful about placing out of classes because it could have a dire effect on your GPA, which should be pretty good to be considered for ENJJPT. Being that ENJJPT is my dream placement out of the academy, this advice has been on my mind a lot. Right now, I'm considering astronautical engineering as my major. I have also considered changing majors to something a little less hardcore, but ultimately decided to keep aiming for astro in case I ever get the chance to be a test pilot way down the road. (High aspirations )
What are your thoughts on this?
Thanks a lot
