Post; Grades


I am in 9th grade and want to go to the Naval Academy in Annapolis. I am used to getting straight A(s), but I think the burden will be heavy, since I'm now in high school. Plus, I'm joining a military youth group, and the debate team sometime in the future. What are your thoughts on this issue?

Getting into any military academy is hard and very competitive. The better you look, the better chance you got at making it in.

Not to disregard your opinion, but would anyone else like to voice theirs? I want to have an idea of what everyone thinks

Make sure you work twice as hard in High School. I was like you and my freshman year I got a 3.0 GPA. I now am correcting for it with AP classes

I guess it's four more years of the books, then. Anyway, I went to a local military base about membership in the NSCC (Naval Sea Cadet Corps) Please follow link www.seacadets.org

it is not only good grades but the whole man concept. do community service, join the boy scouts (eagle scouts lloks good on your resume).Remember that you have to impress a congressman or senator. Or have a dad who won the medal of horor, they get an automatic free pass if qualified.
