[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because they are even more possible to get into than HYPS. You can only get in if you have connections.

[/quote] +1 A young woman from Maryland.[/quote] It's easy for girls to get in, the standards are far lower for diversity purposes.[/quote] Hm, no. My daughter got in. The physical test was hard, and required at least three month training (and she was on two varsity teams in her school, so she was in good physical shape). Her GPA was 4.0/4.6, SAT 1540, ACT 35. She also got into two Ivy league schools, and three top state schools. Getting to the service academy was not that easy, don't full yourself.[/quote]
