I’m almost a junior in high school (see naval academy question) and I’ve really thought about going into the naval academy, if not them, then the Air Force Academy. My grades are exceptional and I’m entering 4 honors classes and I CP class next year. I’m in student council, I run cross country, and I was in 4 honors classes as a sophomore and two as a freshman. I’ve also considered starting a debate club at my school. What are my chances and, especially, what are tips to help me enter either of these academies?

P.S. I know about the fitness test and I am currently training for that too.

I am currently a sophomore in high school, and want so badly to make it at USNC. I have a 3.5 with advanced classes, volunteer and participate in Varsity rugby at my high school. Besides grades, reccomendations, fitness, etc, any tips for getting into the academy? Anyone that went/applied/graduated?
