Agree with MikeF and others that perhaps the best cadets don't always translate into the best officers, but I know some that certainly have.
As far as the question of does what is learned at USMA prepare you to be an officer, I can say the foundational knowledge of what 'officership' truly means is the largest lesson I extracted.
On a side note, I recently completed a survey on Officer Basic Education (am sure many of you did as well) and 'officership' was one of the components the survey covered.
And by the way....the Corps HAS since 1995!
