I live in the NYC Area and i really want to go to west point ill do anything to be able to go, however i know i probably wont get accepted. my gpa is about a 3.0 with minimal extracurriculars compared to the other students who are probably applying. im going to retake the sat and act next month to increase my grades on it im looking to get over a 1350 on sat and over 29 on act. Im going to try anyway but in case i dont which i probably wont what can i do so that i can get into west point in the future 1 or 2 years? My plan was that if I dont get accepted i would attend college (CUNY or community college?) for a semester then join the army guard and go to basic and AIT as a 25S then reapply after that. Could that be possible and would that work out? my low gpa was solely due to some laziness in high school which i regret knowing that i couldve gotten into west point easily if i tried, but that does not matter. what should i do? im really really bummed out and sad that i know i wont make it even though im going to try any recommendations would help me greatly. Also i graduated high school june of 2016
