I'm currently a freshman in HS and am interested in going to a service academy. I have already submitted my list of requests for my elective courses next year, but I have 3 periods worth of electives to take so I will very likely not get my top choices. My list that I already submitted is -in order- Computer Science (1/2 year), Advanced Computer Science (1/2) year, America 1945-Present (1/2 year), Public Speaking (1/2 year), Criminal Justice (full year), Business Management (1/2 year), and Psychology (1/2 year). The chances of all of these fitting into my schedule is extremely slim, so I would like to have some other backups that may fit into my schedule when it is made. Some of the other electives that are offered that I wouldn't mind taking are Video Tech, Forensics, Environmental Issues, Astronomy, Bio Medical Tech, Sociology, American Sign Language, Food Prep and Nutrition, Creative Writing, and Journalism. When I get my schedule for next year over the summer I will probably be able to change some things or request to take other electives if the ones I wanted aren't available or don't fit into my schedule, so I wanted to hear from other people on which of these may be most helpful in a future career in the military, or just most helpful for the future in general.
