<p>Just stopping by, but fligirl89, I think the Academy does collect information about other schools to which their midshipmen got accepted. Once you accept an appointment, the paperwork doesn’t stop, and it is in filling out they myriad of forms and completing online surveys that this information is solicited and supplied. Since, I think, you decided not to accept an appointment, you would have no way of knowing this.</p>
<p>Plus, it’s just goofy to engage in discussions of who would last where and how long. SAT scores don’t measure motivation, and motivation is by far a better predictor of success than most anything else. Most any Mid who wanted to succeed at an Ivy would, and most any Ivy leaguer who wanted to succeed at a Service Academy would.</p>
<p>Finally, ALL schools offer EI. At civilian schools it’s called “Office Hours”. Most schools also offer “remedial” courses. Usually, they are there to help people who need to take an out-of-major course to fulfill some kind of core requirement. Engineers don’t take “Physics for Poets”, English majors do. If this doesn’t happen at a school, it’s usually because they have no graduation requirements outside a student’s major. </p>
<p>Just trying to be helpful. ;-)</p>
<p>Hope everyone has a great Navy day.</p>
