My DS has a primary goal to get into the Naval Academy. Right now is selected to session 3 for the NASS and will be attending one of their sports camps. He has also interviewed with a B&G and been in contact with our US Senators and Congressman... Off to the races with this part.
When the NROTC application he got right on that and has filled in (but not submitted) all of the information they require.
His school choices are:
1. BU
2. University of South Carolina
3. North Carolina State University
4. PENN St
5. University of Maryland at College Park
His academics, school involvement (clubs), volunteer / community service, and athletics are what you would normally see in a competative candidate.
I'm keeping my distance by using the forum and not bother him with questions to avoid any influance.
With that I have been to the Academy, BU, PENN St, and The University of Maryland at College Park. I also know what they all look for in regard to ACT and SAT.
My questions are:
1. Does anybody know anything about the NROTC unit at The University of South Carolina?
My sons current 1st time SAT and ACT score are:
SAT: Reading 540 - Math - 640 Writing - 630
ACT: Comp. 28 Math 26 - English 31
His first test were taken cold and over the past couple of months he has been taking a prep class with 8 others. His practice test for SAT and ACT put him in the following:
SAT: Reading 620 - Math 700 - Writing - 670
ACT: Comp. 30 - Englisn 32 - Math 29
If he actually scores in thes two areas which one would be better to submit?
Or
Is it better to just submit both?
Thank you...
