Hello all,
I am currently a HS senior and will be attending Cornell University next year on a NROTC scholarship and will also be playing varsity lacrosse there. Although I would prefer to enlist and go straight toBUD/s after college, this is no longer really an option unless I leave Cornell which I am not planning on doing. So my main focus now is to improve my resume so that I can get one of those coveted spots at BUD/s when the time comes. I am going to work for the high GPA, killer PT scores, and will be taking Arabic. The lacrosse team there is very strong, currently 10th in the nation, and trains very hard so my fitness level will be very high with the additional NROTC training. I know how competitive the BUD/s slots are, so given my current situation, would you advise me to try out for football my sophomore year, or is my resume competitive enough as is? Any other tips for improving my chances would be greatly appreciated.
