Which school are you applying to? Your SATs and AP scores are kinda weak but your SAT IIs are good (similar to mine).

You might want to retake the SAT I.

Your awards aren't especially impressive for Penn, Duke or Stanford, but it doesn't mean you have no shot at all.

All I can say now is good luck.

Ten AP's is impressive. SAT I scores are on the low side but definitely won't exclude you.
