This is what i do and plan on doing.&lt;br&gt;I am on the Varsity Cross Country Team right now, and plan on joining the Indoor and Outdoor track team. Hopefully i will be made captain of one of them next year.Its too early in the school year, but i plan on joining the Activities committee, community service club, and the National Honors Society. I am in excellent physical shape and I take all Honors classes. For now its just Honors (and my grades are mostly high A's) but when they become available next year i will be taking AP courses. I am in ROTC and very soon plan on starting Civil Air Patrol and earning the Mitchell Award. I was a Boy Scout and got up to First Class but had to stop, but i heard of another troop in my township so im thinking of starting that up again for the community service aspect, and i heard being an Eagle Scout really helps. I come from a military family, and having both parents in the Air Force, i know all there is to know about military life. I am in contact with my State Senators and Reps and they know i will be applying in 2 years and they support me. Do i have a chance, and if not can you tell me what i should do to better my chances? Thanks a ton, i apprecitate it a lot.i know it dont have SAT and class rank or GPA, (as of now its a 4.0, and im a month through school) but still. Thanks.&lt;br&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
