Avoid Kryptonite.

Very good stats.

Very impressive test scores! Way above the curve.

I agree with Luigi...avoid kryptonite and you'll be good to go. Your SATs are really impressive...way better then mine were. I think you are honestly good with your extracurricular activities...you hold a leadership position in almost every one. Good luck!

thanks, all! I'm mostly worried about the lack of community service type extracurriculars...

Then I would recommend doing some volunteer work, for a variety of reasons.
