My chances?

So I'm going to write up my essays today... but I want to get your opinions. Do i have a fair chance? :O

GPA: 3.7/4.2 (UW/W)
I took 2 AP's sophomore, 3 in junior, and currently taking 4.

SAT: 2070
Math: 750
CR: 640
Writing: 680
Essay: 10

I'll be taking it this saturday.. Hoping for 2250+

Math Level 2C: 800
Biology E: 740

EC's & Clubs
Music - Piano (14 years), Guitar (5 years), DJ , Sound Engineer (I like to read books and research online about this. hehe)

Audiophile Club (music club at school) - 10, 11, 12 - we go around and play for assisted living homes and in public venues.

Wrestling Varsity - sophomore year (2nd in Regionals)
Peer College Counselor - junior and senior (President this year)
Church - Worship Leader and T.A. at Children's Ministry (I get all my volunteer hours from this)

that pretty much sums up my profile. I'm the type of guy that doesn't have a million clubs, but instead just a few and really dedicate myself to them..

my teachers and counselor know me really well so they all wrote me very personal letters of recommendations.. (my counselor knows me really well after working with her as a peer college counselor.)

oh, and i am from a korean immigrant family.. if that helps. my dad went to a college in korea, but not in america.

post below what you think! thanks for taking a look guys.
any positive/negative feedback is welcomed!

The essays are what get in you. Not so much the stats.
