<p>Do not go USNA to continue family heritage. Worst idea ever.
Don’t go to USNA just because you can go prep. Seriously, why is it good to go an extra year?</p>
<p>Seems like all your pros and cons are the same. Let’s narrow it down.</p>
<p>Air Force Academy
pros:
I get in direct for the class of 2010
4-year program
Air Force sounds nice</p>
<p>cons:
I’m not near the ocean</p>
<p>Naval Academy
pros:
I have friends that will be my potential classmates</p>
<p>cons:
I’m not so hot on the idea of being stuck in a ship for six months
what if I don’t make it to NAPS?</p>
<p>Okay, not much left. Anything else?</p>
<p>NAPS or appointment? NAPS/Whatever USAFA’s is called doesn’t mean jack as far as appointment.</p>
