Don't see APs or school leadership positions such as team captain, editor; other stuff good. Also, SAT scores under 700 level with one exception. Very competitive, extremely competitive school. Can't predict anything, but wish you luck; if you'd really loved it, should've applied ED, IMHO.

The Long Island co-presidency is good for the area; what about stuff at your school?

No, no leadership positions at school in particular, but with my constant activity and being in a lot of clubs, plus doing a lot outside of school, i doubt a lack of a school leadership position can be any type of factor

How can your school be extremely competitive and not even offer AP courses?
