[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The service academies have around a 33% dropout rate and outcomes for droup outs are not great. Look to your left look to your right one of you won't be here at graduation.

If your child is a borderline case it's better they don't go and become a dropout. After sophomore year you owe big $$$ if you don't finish as well.

The academies are a great place to be from there's no denying that.[b] If you're on this forum debating which one has the better undergraduate experience you are approaching this from entirely the wrong mindset.[/b][/quote]

This, exactly. I dated a guy at USNA and it was brutal. He was an ideal candidate, but after plebe summer he looked absolutely cowed.  I couldn’t believe how mean the other students were to the underclassmen. [/quote]

If you can’t handle that, how are you going to handle combat? Tell the enemy “stop being so mean, you’re hurting my feelings”? 🙄

Military academies should be tough to weed out weaklings like this.[/quote]
