He wasn't giving his opinion of you, but of your preparation as it was
presented in your post. "On the internet, nobody knows you're a
dog"--but nobody knows you are smart, handsome, and affable, either.
The same is true at college admissions offices and navy offices.
What's on the paper or in the email is all they have to go by. So yes,
written English is very important, as are test-taking skills.

Good luck in your career, whatever it may be!

Nothing in your post supports that high opinion you have of yourself.

You were dumb to ignore the opportunities of high school and now
you're paying the price. You are not likely to do well in college
because you aren't prepared for it.

Find some school where you can learn to write better English and
while you're at it, learn to study. Then you might be able to do
better in any Navy program and in life.

Hmmm... I didn't ask for your opinion on me, so don't give it. If
you can't answer my questions then don't write anything. You don't
know me, and I'm not going to argue with you on the internet because
it's pointless and childish. But thank you anyway. If anyone else
can answere any of my questions I would appreciate it. thanks

all the best -- Dan Ford
