Hello,
I just finished my Freshman year of high school. I took 3 honors courses (Honors English 9 pre-AP, Honors Math geometry 3-4, and Honors Lab Bio) I also took AFJROTC (where i became the Junior Varsity Unarmed Drill Commander [winning a trophy in my first drill meet, winning my first drill down, and beating our varsity team once] Also, i became the NCOIC of info-management; pledged and joined the Kitty Hawk Air Society [which is reserved for the top 10% of all AFJROTC cadets world wide, after completing the pledge program] along with being the highest ranking freshman for 3/4 of the year.) I play lacrosse, finishing off a winning season (we went 6-4, 3 of the loses were in over-time, 1 loss was by one point) as a middi/attack. My final GPA of the year was 4.0 weighted, with A's in all of my regular classes, and B's in my honors classes (my school is very competitive, with a high number of students taking honors courses). This summer, i am also volunteering at a local airplane museum, and doing Summer Leadership School for AFJROTC.
What should I do to improve my ability to get in to the academy?
I can not join Student Council, as my schedule does not have room; nor does my lacrosse team offer "captain" positions (our coach doesn't like them). My lacrosse team is not a school sport, as no lacrosse teams are school sports that i know of in Arizona, but i will be receiving a varsity letter for Drill Team.
Thank you for reading this; and ANY advice would be most appreciated.
