With the summer approaching and applications opening up, I just wanted to make sure I am on track so far 
Thanks in advance for your input!!
- I will be taking the ACT on June 14.
- I've opened up a file for the ROTC scholarship for all three branches and am waiting for the application to officially open up in mid to late June.
- I've asked for rec letters from my English, Math, and Chemistry teachers as well as a confirmation letter for my involvement in various ECAs from my counselor.
- I've contacted the staffer in charge of service nominations in my district and am waiting for my ACT scores to roll in so I can press that submit button!
- I'll be attending NASS this week and will be taking the CFA there (was not accepted to SLE) .
- Besides NASS and Girls State this summer, I will be involved with my local Operation Care and Comfort unit by making care packed for troops overseas. I am also applying for various life guard jobs.
As for my senior schedule, I have decided to take the toughest courses offered, again (the rigor is similar, if not, harder than my junior year) :
AP Econ
AP Gov
AP Calc BC
AP Chemistry
AP Physics
English 4
Like many applicants on here, West Point has been my absolute dream school since grade school--I am putting my best foot forward in everything I do and hope to one day be part of the Long Gray Line
P.S. I've heard from various sources that being a female Asian applicant would help my chances; although I do not want to be accepted purely based on a quota, I am still curious to know if this is a fact.
