DS is attending NASS s3 - he's thrilled! Attended USNA STEM in 2014. HS class size is 520 - he's top 10%. Takes all AP courses & is in Project Lead the Way (engineering) program 9th, 10th, 11th. In June, he's headed to Boy's State in Austin, then will go directly to USNA. He has played var-Water Polo & var-Swim Team all 3 years. He is 5'5" , 135 lbs. If you ask him what he wants to do: "serve my country, fly planes, race sailboats. Biggest passions are avid reading, sailing & racing dinghies. Also has lot's of tutoring, church youth team leadership, Spanish club & NHS hours. Plans to take ACT & retake SAT asap.
1st SAT scores:
Reading 740
Math 630
Writing 560.
Does the sailing, swim & water polo help his package? Is he competitive?? Any thoughts on the value of taking Creative Writing & AP Chinese 1 during his sr. year? (Already completed 3 yrs Pre-AP Spanish I, II, III).
All insights will be much appreciated! THANKS ;-)
