I am captain of my hockey team (club)
Some leadership position in a jewish youth group

Worked at a coffee shop
worked for Dell (summer internship but paid)
Also i got a 31 on the ACT (35 on the math part)
Oh and I am applying to the Business school
any chance for a scholarship?
Your GPA is the only thing I'd be worried about. SATs, ECs, and ACT is great, but your GPA will hurt you. I think you have a decent chance at getting in, but probably no scholarship.
I wrote in the additional information about my GPA
My GPA went up a lot junior and senior year
My essays and recs are good
I am from California if that makes a difference
Also from a very competative school
I agree with Sak09. Everything looks good except for the GPA which may or may not be a strong deciding factor for you. I don't really know much about the requirements for internships though.
