Of course, a good ACT score doesn't get you into any of our military academies. It may help, but there are other things that are even more important. The more important thing is the "nomination." All candidates that are accepted must have secured a nomination from one of the following:
The Vice President
U.S. Senators
U.S. Representatives
Delegates to the House of Representatives from Washington, D.C., Guam and the Virgin Islands
The Governors of American Samoa and Puerto Rico
The Resident Commissioner of Puerto Rico
The Resident Commissioner of the Northern Mariana Islands
The Secretary of the Army

There are a couple of them on the list that he simply canno secure, for he doesn't live in those areas. And I am sure there will be plenty of candidates vying for the limited number of nominations coming from Wisconsin.

So, even with that score (and he said he will be retaking the test to improve this score), there are no guarantees.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
