My son just received notice that he was just put on the National Waiting List today. Does anyone have any insights as to chances this year of being appointed off the list? Seems it could go either way - with applications down it might mean that those that did apply were more serious about West Point and few will get in off the list. On the other hand, once appointed - because of Iraq - appointees and their families might think twice about accepting the appointment. I guess I could go crazy thinking about this.
