Am I Good Enough To Get Into Usna?
Will I get into the Naval ACademy?
I’ve had a rough high school, a bit tumultuous i daresay. Before I state my .. accomplishments, I will first say this. I had no clue there were service academies till the end of my junior year. Hence, if I knew there was a school out there for me, I would have gotten 4.0 gpa no joke.
From freshman to junior year, my Gpa cumulative is 2.57, and weighted 3.09. By the end of my high school, I will have taken 7-8 AP courses, and about 6-7 science classes. And I won the school science fair, got 2nd place in counties, and am entered in the JS HS, a national science contest. I also got a 1940 on my SATs.
I’m the top violinist in my school, one of the best in the state.
I have 399 hours of community service, and I’ve gone to other countries, villages, such as Thailand and Mexico and did a lot of stuff there. For example, assisting the sick and elderly, giving out medicine, playing with the kids, performing for ppl, and was the leader of the mission relief group.
I’m 17 btw. I’m also the indoor and outdoor track captain of my school, as well as first violin/ 2nd chair (I should be first haha).
I’m also the co-chair for Key Club, and President/leader for FCA, the largest christian club in the nation (Fellowship of Christian AThletes)
I can be a leader, and I know what to do. I’ve started out at the bottom, and made my way up to the top. But my GPA is awful. Yeah… i’m like a retarded sevant, …..
People hear I get 1940, Science fair and blabla, violinist, Track caPtain, but my gpa is… retarded.
But due to several reasons whcih will devour this page, I will withdraw from stating them. But I will say, my desire to achieve academically has skyrocketed.
Hence, this first quarter of my senior year, I have receieved a 3.42 GPA and 4.2 Weighted, with Ap and Honors classes. I’m going to go to States this year, definintely…. and yeah..
I applied for my nominations, but Mikulski has not given me hers. I jsut have to wait for cardin or edwards. Truth is, I’m not sure If anything will go right because of my damn GPA. But I can’t look back right now, and I need to look foward. The Naval Academy is where I need to go to fulfill my destiny, that’s how I like to think of it.
I know I have what it takes, and I know that I won’t regret it at all. I want to serve. And I’m Korean, making me a minority, fluent in korean speaking writing and understanding, good at Spanish, a bit of japanese and some thai, and.. yeah.

I know several people who have been to the USNA and all of them had a background similar to yours. If your SAT scores are poor you should think about retaking the test.
The key lies in the recommendations, the more you have and the more impressive they are, the more likely it is that you will get in. Senator, Congressman, Governor or Mayor are good to get. If you can get to someone who is/was high up in the navy, that works well. For you it really will be who you can get to recommend you.
I think you have a shot at it. Try to schedule an appointment to meet with Mikulski or at least talk to her- seriously! Go the extra step! Let her see you, hear from you, put a face with your application. Explain it! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
