I know this is straying a little off topic for this thread, but this is my first post on this forum and I hated to start a new thread. I am 16 years old and I just finished my sophomore year of high school, and I know that where I am right now my chances of getting into the acadamey are not very high. I used to be in the civil air patrol a few years ago, but quit to spend more time on school. I know it would be good if I could rejoin the CAP. I am planning on participating in cross country track and tennis next year (I know that a team sport of some kind would look better but I'm not very good at any). I will also be taking college daul enrollment classes, which I hope should help. I have very good grades with the exception of one B. I thought if I followed this plan for the next two years I would have pretty good chances, but I have been reading more about the academy recently and I recieved a brochure recently that said most cadets start the paperwork for admission the second semester of their junior year, so am I to late? I was also wondering if anyone knows of anything else that I could do related to leadership that I could use while applying? I really want this guys an help is appreciated.
