<p>I'm a junior in High School in a relatively rural community. I currently have an unweighted GPA of 3.690. This my core academic classes are Calculus, AP Chemistry, GT (Advanced) Physics, Latin II, AP English 11, and U.S. History. I have taken 2 APs in the last two years, AP Government and AP World History. I received a 3 and a 4 on the exams respectively. I have yet to take the SATs.</p>
<p>Next year I am looking to take AP Physics, AP Calculus, and AP English. Other classes haven't been decided.</p>
<p>As far as extra curricular activities go, I am in the President of my class, a full member of both the Science and Math honor societies, a member of the debate team, Tenor in the Chamber Choir, a member of the Varsity Tennis team, and an avid member of the theatre program both inside and outside of school, where I have participated on stage, in technical aspects, and in leadership positions. I have taken 3 years of Japanese (I, II, III) but I didn't receive the high school credit because of a school transfer between 8th and 9th grade.</p>
<p>I work out every day. I currently run about 5 miles a day, which takes about me 30 minutes. I can do about 50 pushups and 30 pull ups. I do somewhere between 240-300 different abdominal crunches every other day.</p>
<p>I am passionate about my community, and volunteer at a local pediatric hospital. I am also a member of SADD as well as a member of the Relay for Life Program at my school, where we raise money for Cancer research.</p>
<p>This has been my dream since I was four. I realize that I'm not the epitome of a USNA recruit, but I've never been more passionate about a cause. If I could please some insight and suggestions about my situation. Thank you so much.</p>
<p>Last year I received a score of 157 on the PSAT. My test results haven’t returned for this year, I’ll find out late december.
I’m located in Maryland, in a rural area called Hereford. I go to Hereford High School, which has about 1200 students.</p>
<p>Thank you very much for your input Whistle Pig.</p>
<p>You’re welcome. Keep working hard. Crank on your SAT math especially. Take the ACT. Figure out which you’re better at and take it as many times as you can afford in time, effort, funds. Stick in athletics. Be healthy as a horse, don’t screw up your knees, etc. Let your BGO and MOC know, “I’m coming! And I’m ready.”</p>
<p>Here’s the issue … if you do your best, and it seems you’ve a great plan and you’ve really been working it … you’ll be fine WHEREVER you land. And I’m betting it’s in USN/USMC in the end regardless of Academy or elsewhere. You’ve impressed me.</p>
<p>I sure wish you lived in Wyoming in South Dakota or New Mexico or … rather than MD. But lots of MD MIDs! And you can be one of 'em.</p>
<p>You are on the right path. Get at least 1400 SAT 2 subject of 31 on ACT.</p>
<p>Out of curiosity, how come you can only do 50 push-ups but do 30 pull-ups? 30 pull-ups is extremely impressive (beyond max) but 50 push-ups doesn’t even hit average on the CFA.
You probably have a extremely strong back but not so much on lower chest front shoulders. Get even.
btw here are the events on the CFA
mile run- i think u should be fine
sit-ups- u should aim for the 95 max which I assume u can do already within 2 minutes
push-ups- max is 75, average is about 60
pull-ups,- max is 18- u almost doubled it
basketball throw- not sure if that even counts for anything
shuttle- seemingly useless</p>
