What????????????????
So considering I work part time, I have a little chance of acceptance? So I shouldnt bother to reapply?
If you want to go to a Service Academy, and that is your dream, you should NOT GIVE UP!! Take a look at yourself, and see how you can improve. Is it GPA? ACT/SAT scores and should you study and retake them? You can be involved in community service activities, it doesn't have to be sports, but your CFA score should be outstanding then. Find something to be involved in that shows you are team-oriented and have leadership qualities. I don't believe the SAs want a lot of activities, but quality time in activities that show a certain type of applicant. What type? A leader, team player, a resilient, determined person, intelligent, physically fit, articulate, striving for excellence. What about your essays? Do you write well? There have to be areas where you can improve. You must determine what they are and work on them. Think about how you can improve your Whole Candidate Score.
Also, they are looking for young men and women with perseverance and determination. You have that if you are applying a third time. But you have to do more than just apply. Show that you have what it takes, take an honest look at yourself and strive to improve in those areas I mentioned above.
If this is what you want, then don't let anyone stop you. What do you have to lose? You will be a better young man for it. If you don't get accepted this 3rd time around, you will continue at your job and the CCollege, right? If you don't apply a 3rd time, you will continue at your job and the CCollege, right? BUT IF YOU APPLY A 3RD TIME YOU JUST MIGHT GET ACCEPTED. If you don't apply you will never know.
Hang around with friends who support you in your dreams, not anyone who will be a downer. Hang with friends who work out and study. Hang out with friends who will encourage you toward your goal, and friends who will kick you in the butt if you start to feel sorry for yourself. These kinds of friends will be good for your morale. If someone tries to tell you that you can't do something, don't hang out with them, and then do your best to prove them wrong.
So, figure out where you need to improve your application file and DO IT. Don't JUST apply. Don't turn in the same application you submitted the last two times if that didn't get you an appointment. BUT DON'T LET ANYONE STOP YOU FROM ACHIEVING YOUR DREAM. You can do this. Nuff said. Good luck!
