Try and do multiple varsity sports. Idk if you're big into football, but if you're doing it just cause, I'd do something more laid back like XC. That way you'll have more time available in the summer to work/volunteer and more time to study during the school year as practices end earlier. Leadership positions in clubs, such as student body, beta, and/or NHS president, vp, etc. Take as many weighted courses next year as possible along with AP/IB to boost your rank even more, but don't kill yourself with an overload. Try and find something military related to do if possible, can't hurt. Apply for as many summer programs as you can. You'll have boys state/sle next summer, find something for this summer. Keep stacking your resume, it's what you gotta do. Apply for everything opportunity that presents itself to you, take advantage of everything resource you can. Don't stress amount Nom interview now, but maybe try and familiarize yourself with your MOC. You can even reach out to your MOCs office and try an intern over the summer. This would be huge for USMA and for the Nom process while also capitalizing on your summer. Hope this helps. Any other questions?
Would you happen to know of any good summer programs for rising juniors? I've looked into my local CAP squadron and that is a possibility, but I'd like to maybe invest more of my summer time in preparing my resume. Just in general anything that would be military or government related interests me, and cost really isn't a huge issue.
Thanks
