VMI or The Citadel chances?
Hello everyone! Im new to Yahoo answers, so i would like to say i hope everyone is positive in the community :).
I am a junior in a college prepatory highschool (one of the best) in Florida. But i am worried i wont get accepted into VMI because of my low gpa. My goal is to comission in the army as an officer through ROTC. I have a terrible gpa due to personal issues, but am very confident in getting a high test scores and excell in other areas. If i applied with the following, would i have somewhat of a chance to get accepted right after highschool? I really am serious about this as i have ambitious goals in life, and that includes becoming an officer in the army.

2.200 community hours in library, church, hospital ect...
3.Nearly perfect SAT/ACT scores (1550/32)
4.been to clubs such as FBLA, Japanese culture club, and chess club.
5.Have taken honors classes throughout my Highschool along with one/two AP Classes.
6.sports is not my strong area either, but i do work out and am physcially fit, along with Swimming and playing Tennis
7.I have leadership potential, with business/History/Politics as my favorite subjects.
8.i can get reccomendations from teachers and try to write an essay regarding my potential.
9.Great public speaking
