<p>I say you're probably in based on URM status, difficult course load, and good test scores. However, I would advise you to focus your extracurricular activites so you show more of an interest in particular areas like boys scouts and tennis rather than throw in a laundry list of hospitals, schools, drama, NHS, and court jury. It says right on the UVa application that they would prefer you submit a short list of extracurriculars that you are passionate about rather than a long resume that doesn't tell anything specific about you.</p>
