Best path to piloting?
I am a recent high school graduate who is looking into naval aviation post university. Here are my current stats-
-
Graduated HS top 8% of class with a 3.85 GPA (UW)
-
Graduate from community college with AA Summa Cum Laude
-
Healthy and relatively athletic, so health should not be an issue
-
Headed to Uni in Fall
Questions: -What is the best possible bachelors degree I can get to increase my likelihood of success and aptitude? -What would the best step to take post college be? (No ROTC option)
-
What can I be doing now to prepare myself in general, outside of physical activity and school-studies?
Thanks ahead of time!
