Your profile looks good, if exhausting. I would say you have a good chance if you present yourself well.

Your ACT is well within range, as far as I know you don't need to send in both the SAT and ACT. If you are determined to retest since you are clearly stonger in the ACT than SAT maybe the ACT is what you should focus on retaking. But while a 36 is better than 33, 33 is great! SAT 2's are not required and you can definitely get in without them. You have some strong EC's and community involvement so you are definitely a contender. Looking at CMC specifically, IMO you could put less energy into your standardized tests leaving you more time to focus on your classes and EC activities and putting together a great college ap. Good Luck!
