Hello all,
I am currently a junior in high school and I am continuing to look at possible colleges to attend in the future. The academies caught my eye because I have wanted to serve all of my life largely due to my dad and grandfathers all being in the military. I wanted to just come on here and receive criticism from others on what I could improve in terms of my application to the academies.
Academics:
-GPA: 4.0 (4.3 weighted)
- Act: 33
Athletics:
- Varsity football
-Varsity Swim
-Varsity baseball
- Golf Team
Leadership:
-Captain of the football team
-Captain of the baseball team
-Assistant manager of the pool I lifeguard at
-Student council
Awards:
-Leadership Award ( Given by Sophmore teachers for leadership in and out of the classroom)
-Academic Award (For receiving the highest grades for the classes I took in my grade)
-Principal honor roll
Other:
-100 hours of volunteering
-I am going to three high schools because my dad is in the military
-I have a baby brother that I have to watch and babysit multiple times a week
Practice CFA:
BB throw- 81 feet
pullups- 14
Shuttle- 8.3 seconds
crunches- 87
pushups- 70
mile- 6:02
Is there anything I can change or improve in my applications and what are my current chances of getting in?
