Is It Too Late to Change Up My Lifestyle and Become a Fighter Pilot?

Question by xxjusxkellyxx: Is it too late to change up my lifestyle and become a fighter pilot?
I’m a 14 year old white female. I’ve been through… a lot, I was born in the inner city area of Baltimore, and brought up in Glen Burnie Maryland. So far, I’ve done poorly. My GPA is 1.25 but I hope to bring it up to 3.5-3.8 before my High School career is over. I’m going to be a Sophmore on Tuesday. I hope to try out for spring sports, also. I work out twice a day and I’m currently trying to apply as an intern at the gym to raise money and pay my own share of the bills. I’ve ‘been around the block’ this includes drugs, abuse, rape, and much more. I’ve stayed away from gangs, and that’s about it.

I have big plans for my next three years in High School, this means, get my GPA up, meet the Senator, enrol in Civil Air Patrol, join sports, get a job, and do some more volunteer work. Maybe if I’m able to fix things and bury my past a little bit, can I make it into the Air Force Academy and be a fighter pilot? What are your suggestions? I’ll do everything possible, even change my name.

I don’t think women are allowed in combat. You can be a pilot, but not a fighter pilot.
