But do I have the potential to be accepted into the U.S. Air Force Academy?
I'm 19 years old, 5'6 133lbs and my ethnicity and race are hispanic and white respectively.
I had a HS GPA of 3.5-3.6 and graduated 38th in a class of 178.
My SAT scores were 1900, CR- 600, Math- 580, Writing- 720
I went to a very good private college for one year and had a GPA of 3.7 with one Dean's List selection. I also played division I college tennis.
In high school I played baseball and track (lettered in track), but I was not a team captain or a leader in any of the activities I took part in.
I recently took the CFA and performed as follows
Basketball Throw- 57'
Pull-Ups- 13
Shuttle Run- 8.1 (I had around a 7.4 on my first attempt but the administrator could not count it because she made me run a longer distance than what the SR was supposed to cover and timed me at 11s)
Push-Ups- 52
Modified Sit-Ups- 55 (I really hope this isn't a disqualifying score. I have never been good at sit-ups but I was essentially doing real sit-ups because she only counted it if I went ALL the way up to my knees and came back down, and my abs did not hurt at all afterward, when I do crunches on the ball in the weight room I can do 100 straight until I feel some good burning)
One Mile Run- 7:00
I know my local congressman very well and I'm hopeful that I'll be lucky enough to get his nomination.
Do you think I have any shot at this point or did the CFA kill me?
I should also mention that I passed my DODMERB examination and got all the necessary paperwork done (including the 3 teacher recommendations and 3 evaluations)
