Hi y'all, I'm currently a HS junior who had to move to Korea recently for financial reasons. I'm writing this because I am consolidating my chances of actually being admitted into USAFA. I feel like having to move halfway through junior year screwed me over and am kinda lost as to what I should do from now on. Any feedback on academics, athletics, extracurriculars, etc would be appreciated.
Academics:
3.33 unweighted/3.94 weighted GPA
1290 psat(confident in at least 1400 if i took it now bc of sat studying I did)
was taking 3 AP classes till I moved, unsure if ill be able to take the exams here
13 honors classes
Overall pretty mediocre academically, nothing outlier
Athletics:
11 years of baseball: rec, club, school, competition experience in pretty high-level tourneys nationally
wrestling in HS
Jiu-jitsu
will be competing in long-distance running in May
My only big regret here is the fact that I had to move before starting my first varsity season
Other extracurriculars:
Speech and debate, competed in 2 events and did decently well, winning a tournament once
English tutoring
volunteered at a community summer camp as a counselor
worked at my local mall for 2 years if that counts for anything
there's a lot I could improve on and not as much time, im focusing on the SAT, jiu-jitsu, and trying to find some more leadership-based extracurriculars as most of the stuff I was doing isn't possible now with the move.
Any feedback would be appreciated!
