<p>I am a sophomore in high school at one of the top 100 schools in Texas. I am number 14 out of 400 (top 3.5%) in my class with a 4.0unweighted and 3.87weighted GPA. I just quit football after 8 years freshman year but still workout weekly, I am an active member of ITS (international thespian society/ plan on becoming an officer my junior and/or senior year), have been a lead in 5 plays and 1 musical, I am also part of my high school's varsity theatre program as a sophomore, I am becoming a member of NHS, have at least 100 hours of community service (plan to do a lot more), and take part in my school's science academic competition team. My classes for junior year: AP chem, AP physics 1, PreAP precalculus, PreAP computer science 1, AP US History, AP english III, and two theatre classes. My classes this year were AP biology (90), PreAP chem (93- teacher recruited me for AP chem), AP world history (90), PreAP algebra II (93), PreAP english (90), Spanish III (98- not taking 4), Principals of business (98), theatre production I/varsity theatre (100). And just had a senior friend who got into Stanford and Northwestern. I took my ASVAB and got a 80 on my AFQT (99% on math and science) and I went through Duke TIP talent search program and got a 1300 in 7th grade but other than that I have not done any major tests yet. I plan on at least trying to get a 2100-2200 on the SAT and a 30-33 on my ACT. I have shown, I feel, a strong interest in science and math. What are my chances at West Point? I want to serve and carry on my family military tradition. Have a cousin who is on way to becoming possible brigadier general and another who is a flight instructor.</p>
<p>Impressive academics! However a huge part of WP is athletics and leadership. Granted, theater is great and very beneficial but quitting football probably wasn’t your best bet. Also, try to become an officer or rank highly in any club/sport you do. That will help you greatly, in admissions processes and just growing as a person. You will have a better idea of chances once you actually take some standardized tests. Before you start the admissions process, as it is very long, make sure YOU want to go. Not just for family tradition, but because you want to serve as an officer in the US Army. Overall, you are strong in academics and community service so now try to round yourself out with some athletics and leadership! Best of luck, go Army!</p>
