Hi, im a freshmen in highschool at a school in rural Illinois of about 1000 students. My father served 20 years in the AF and i plan to follow in his footsteps. Ive been wanting to join the AFA since I was 7 and now that im getting closer I need some guidance and i also have a few questions.
Academics:
GPA: 3.4 (and rising)
I plan to take 4 years of Spanish, 4 Math, 4 Science, 3 History, 4 English.
Extracurricular Activities:
Starting QB (football), aswell as Wing in Basketball and I run the mile in track in 5:44. As for clubs i am a Demolay, and I plan to join Key Club.
Physical:
I am 130lbs, 5'10 and as healthy as a horse. I have 20/20 vision.
Other:
Since my dad is a disabled vet. do I get special recognition to the air force academy?
How competitive are the USAFA intercollegiate sports?
What else can I do to improve my chances on attending to AFA?
