There's an AP Photography class? I had no idea.

A B+/A- average usually isn't very good, but if your in the top 10-15% percent at your school then your school is just tougher than average and your alright.

I think your academics are solid and whether you get in or not will just depend on whether or not you express to the adcom that you are a passionate individual who is more than an SAT score or average.
