I think you have a good chance it’s just your GPA and class schedule that needs to be improved.

ECs are solid and the internship will look really really good. Like lottechar said, just make your class schedule look more rigorous or justify why you didn’t take more challenging classes.

Your experiences in the hotel industry are seriously impressive. I think those position you for having a great chance.

SAT - aim higher, considering your course load isn’t particularly challenging.
