I'm currently a Sophomore about to move up to my Junior year. As of right now, my unweighted GPA is a mere 3.6, and this is because I signed up for AP U.S. History when I'm actually a math person. Despite my hardest, it's tanking my GPA needless to say. Next year, I'll be taking a schedule that is math heavy: including AP Calc. AB, and Physics Honors alongside my normal classes, which will in turn boost my GPA. I want to apply to the Summer Seminar, but I'm concerned that my Summer Seminar Application won't be as strong as my Preliminary Application that I would fill out towards the end of the year if I don't apply to the Summer Seminar, and since the Summer Seminar application is also used as the Prelim., will this heavily reduce my chances of moving on to the next stage after the Prelim. Application?
Next: The Naval Academy says that if you meet the minimum academic standards, you'll be notified that you're an official candidate. What are the minimum academic standards?
How many people move on to the next stage after filling out the prelim. application?
Lastly: Given my GPA, should I fill out a Summer Seminar application or wait until the end of the year and fill out the Prelim. Application when my GPA is a bit higher because of Semester 2.
