Any advice is appreciated! Please tell me things that I can do better, and don’t be nice about it, thank you!
 
Good work so far but if I had to recommend what you can improve on. Increase your SAT scores because thats the only uniform standard they can compare different kids academic capability. Work on your CFA test. You have ample time to get good CFA score if you start now.
Also take a science and calculus AP/Dual credit course. If the onlevel high school science and math course was hard then dont take the AP/Dual credit course and ruin your grade, you are better off working on extracurriculars and voluntary service.
 
+1 to usnagirl. Also work on leadership roles. There may be some sprinkled in what you provided but it isn't clear to me. Scholar, Athlete, Leader is what they are looking for. You can do it. You should also apply to ROTC programs when the time comes as a backup plan that also leads to a commission.
