Hello,
I’m in a pretty weird situation right now and I don’t know where I stand at all with college admissions. Sure there are admissions calculators, but those give a rough estimate on what the chances are. I wanted to know what you guys thought when looking at my “application”

Regents are the regular courses at the school, not the advanced ones. Accelerated Algebra 1 and Geometry are the highest one can take. I feel like since my grades have increased from freshman to junior year, admissions officers would see it and like it? At the time, I was more focused on athletics and didn’t surround myself with good people so my grades were not so well.
Coronavirus caused many colleges to waive the SAT requirement and I was going to take it until it got cancelled. I plan to take SAT in August and SAT IIs afterwards along with the ACT. I did two sports: Varsity Swimming and Junior Varsity Soccer. I also had a job as a referee for soccer and I also pursued a side hustle for a long time which was reselling sneakers. I also was involved in an academic science club at the school.
Next year I’m taking all AP classes and continuing the rigorous course load along with some volunteering possibly. Most of my peers know where they stand with regards to grade, but for me, since my grades are variable and have dramatically changed, I don’t know what schools will accept or even consider. Any thought or advice? (Sorry if this is a lot)
