I guess what the rant refers to as our "fake" military is actually tougher than the West Point Cadets.




True...but, all of the West Point Cadets could be aTm ROTC students. How many of the aTm ROTC students could be West Point cadets?


Point of reference:
- aTm acceptance rate is 62.4%
- West Point acceptance rate is 12%

I don’t at all dispute that West Point is tougher to get into, but that stat is a bit misleading. The criteria and hoops of getting into West Point are nothing like a normal school. Academics are only one criterion where you “qualify” (meet the standard).

There are also medical, physical, and probably something else I’m forgetting. THEN, you have to actually get a nomination from either a congressman (Rep or Senator) or via Presidential or Vice-Presidential nomination, and that involves multiple rounds of interviews.
