Answers Every Question You Could Possibly Have

I loved this book. It covers everything. It answered every question I had and then some, and gave lots of great advice.
If you are even thinking about going to the Air Force Academy or any academy...get this book. You're going to need it.


Current Cadet

This book is indeed sold at the USAFA gift shop. That alone should tell you how much of a slant it has. This is a rose-tinted view of the Academy (nothing about the abiding hatred that most of us have for our lives, the futility of our training, or the ... shoot that is pilot slot allocation), and its information on cadet life is a bit dated. As for its admissions info- pretty good. I've bought this book for friends who wanted to come here.

Essential for USAFA candidates

This book was a great resource for my child's application to the Academy.
It provided insight and helpful tips on how to maximize your chances of getting that coveted 'letter of assurance'.
AND, it talks to the parents about what things will be like and what you can AND shouldn't do to help.
Definitely a must have for anyone even thinking about a service academy or their parents.






Definitely Important for Candidates/Hopefuls!

I'm a high schooler considering the Academy, and this book had tons of really useful information. Apllication tips, with a whole chapter on nominations, how to prepare mentally (VERY important) and physically, what to expect, and even a section for parents! This is an awesome book, if you have any interest in the Air Force or the Academy, BUY IT!!!

READ THIS BOOK!

This book is an insightful, solid resource for any student planning to apply to the Air Force Academy. Written in a clear, concise style with chapter titles like "How to Obtain a Nomination," this book offers each applicant a clear path to the AFA.

Additionally, this book presents a realistic picture, making it clear what trials, physical, academic, & emotional, each cadet undergoes. My son asked me to read the chapter for parents. With a plethora of Do's & Don'ts tips, it made a lot of sense & helped me tremendously to not nag my son. I glanced at another chapter, & then couldn't put the book down. Perhaps a bit dated, for it advises applicants to phone, not email ...

As a parent of a junior planning to matriculate in 2008, I wholeheartedly recommend this book.
