<p>Hi! I'm currently a Freshman in high school and I would like to hear everyone's opinion on my chances of getting into West Point and how I can improve them.
I'm homeschooled and currently taking all of my classes through FLVS. I'm currently in: English 3, Latin 3, Precalculus, Spanish 2, World History, and Chemistry. I have completed all of the required prerequisites for these classes (e.g. English 1+2, Biology, etc...) along with Chinese 1 and 2. I plan to start taking classes at my local community college sometime during 10th grade and I will graduate in 2017 with my high school diploma and, hopefully,
my AA degree.
I'm not exactly sure what my GPA is right now. I have
received all A's in my classes, which are at honors level. I took the SAT test in 7th and
8th grade. Neither scores were saved but my 8th grade scores were 580(math), 570(writing),
and 660(CR). I've been studying and hope to raise my scores by at least 100 points.
I'm on a synchronized swimming team and will most likely remain on it throughout the rest of high school. I will probably be joining my local high school's varsity swim team
next fall.
Let me know what you think! I'll be happy to provide additional information if needed.</p>
<p>Classes look very solid as a Freshman. Probably, the best suggestion is to maintain your GPA during your high school years. Work hard to become a leader of a club or a sport. FBLA and MUN might help.</p>
<p>You look like you are on the right check. You also should take the ACT as West Point requires it (with writing). A suggestion: do push-ups and sit-ups and things of that sort for the CFA everyday, or at least once every few days. These things are often killers for people. Though you are a swimmer and probably in excellent physical shape, things like the BB Throw are known to have thrown people for a loop.</p>
