I’m in my junior year and my first choice is the academy. I have all the extracurricular activities, such as clubs, church, awards, sports, etc. I feel I did well on my SATs with a 1820. The only thing that concerns me is that i have about a 3.2 GPA, thats with honors and gifted classes though. And my high school is easily one of the top high schools in Georgia from an academic stand point. I’m planning on applying to AIM, cadet for a day, and taking a visit up to New London. But will my low GPA hold me back from getting accepted to the academy? What are my chances of getting in?

Honesty appreciated.
Thanks
