Send West Point CFA to USNA?

[William36912]

Just wondering if I could get some input here- I took a CFA at the West Point's Summer Seminar, and scored a little below what I believe I am capable of. Specifically, I maxed the push-ups, pull-ups, and sit-ups, but my mile was a 7:19, my BB throw was 58', and I ran my shuttle run in 10.1 sec (the latter 3 are all below-average scores). With the first admissions board meeting in just over 2 weeks, would it be better to send them a passing CFA that is less than optimal, or just wait until I can show them something better? If I do submit my USMA CFA, will admissions look at my file again if I submit a 2nd, better CFA?
If anyone has any insights on this, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!
(BTW, I'm otherwise pretty competitive, I think- 2340 superscored SAT, Eagle Scout, Varsity Wrestling, tons of leadership in Scouts, Church, and orchestra, etc.)

I know they look back at any applications that have changed, which in your case would be a better CFA. So it wouldn't hurt to submit your current CFA if your going to submit another. Doesn't really matter either way, wait or submit.

I'd submit it. From what we're told, CFA is a small part of the whole person score and while maxing it might help a bit, the objective is to get an appointment and a passing CFA is all that's needed to do that. You can always retake.

No Difference?

So, a passing "No Risk" is equivilent between both USMA & USNA regardless of which SLS academy you took the test?

For USNA, we were told at NASS that the most important parts of the CFA was the run, sit-ups, and either pull-ups or push-up (don't remember). Although your run time is very similar to mine, I don't see why you are worrying about it since you maxed out on the strength portions.

From previous posts, I have seen that it is best to continue running and be able to maintain a 7 min mile pace for up to 3 miles or more for plebe summer.
