<p>Inhibitor - </p>
<p>Did you take the ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery)? It’s a test some schools give to determine proficiency in the military.</p>
<p>If you haven’t taken it and your classmates have, that may account for the interest. When my daughter took it as a junior (and scored pretty high), she started receiving letters from all branches of the military and even an unexpected home visit to recruit her.</p>
<p>If you haven’t received any letters, it may just be that they didn’t know you are interested in the military.</p>
<p>To learn more about the Academy, I’d suggest two books: Absolutely American by David Lipsky and Duty First by Ed Ruggero. These both are very good and give a good inside look at life at West Point.</p>
<p>From what I know of the admissions process, WP doesn’t favor anyone. You must meet their requirements to qualify.</p>
