&lt;P&gt;No one can really tell you what your chances are, except the admissions board.&amp;nbsp; In the end, averages and numbers only go so far to estimate chances.&amp;nbsp; The best advice I can give is to go for it and give your all.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I would reccomend taking the ACT/SAT junior year.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.academyadmissions.com"&gt;www.academyadmissions.com&lt;/A&gt; has a lot of good information about applying.&lt;/P&gt;</description></item><item><title>What are my chances for USAFA?</title><link>http://aircraftbargains.com/cs/forums/thread/4646.aspx</link><pubDate>Mon, 20 Aug 2007 08:42:09 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">a23efcf1-9e75-4ff9-be18-cd9cb68b9485:4646</guid><dc:creator>Yaweth</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://aircraftbargains.com/cs/forums/thread/4646.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://aircraftbargains.com/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=34&amp;PostID=4646</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;P&gt;Becoming a pilot has been a pursuit and goal of mine for a number of years now. I want to become a pilot by going through the USAFA and through the airforce. If that doesn't work out I want to be a aviation mechanic. What are my chances in being enrolled into the USAFA.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have a high GPA, 3.45.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Perfect vision and hearing.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I haven't taken my SAT&amp;nbsp;or ACT yet but&amp;nbsp;I will my Senior year.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I'm very fit, I love anarobic and aerobic exersize. I'm in Track&amp;nbsp;and Field,&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; (2 years)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have a great work ethic, I'm a construction worker.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I'm a Christian with good moral values, I attend Church weekly and devote time to God almost daily.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have taken and&amp;nbsp;I will take the following classes:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; English 4, US&amp;nbsp;History, Government, World History, Auto 1 and 2,&amp;nbsp;Manufactoring Teck 1 and 2, Chemistry, Physics, Physical Science, Biology, Spanish 1 and&amp;nbsp;2, Algerbra 1 and 2, Math Analysis, Weight Training (2 times), &amp;nbsp;Physical Ed.,&amp;nbsp;Advanced Physical&amp;nbsp;Ed. , Keyboarding, Creative Art (didn't care for it.) and,&amp;nbsp;Economics. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I strive hard to reach good grades and be my best, I have good leadership skills but no proof for it besides youth group church sessions, and I like the idea of making my mind and body strong in the USAFA. Please tell me my chances, if you could. Much Thanks.&lt;/P&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
