<p>Hi. All of the schools you have listed mainly take a look at your GPA, and to a lesser extent, your SAT scores. These schools are mainly numbers based. Your numbers are indeed competitive, but you might want to try and bump up your SATs just a little. You seem to be a very active person who is involved in a lot of physical activities. This makes for good recommendations and interviews. My advice to you is to look more towards other schools that view the full you instead of putting such a heavy focus on your numbers. Not saying that you shouldnt apply to these schools, but try and vary the type of school. I am only saying this because I think all the time you have spent developing your extracurriculars may not be noticed by some of these admissions committees. Good luck. Please give me feedback.</p>
