I mean you should be fine I am fairly similar 34 act and 4.3 gpa on 4.0 scale weighted.

ACT is very high, GPA is lower than average admit tho. Extracurriculars can tilt in your favor. 15000 hours of volunteer work is like 10 hours a day for four years… i find that hard to believe but kudos to you for doing it

15000 hrs! How? @villanovafangirl is right 70 hrs a week + school sounds impossible

5

Must have meant 1500 hours I would think.
