KVA420

I know there are a bunch of these, and they probably get pretty annoying, but I'd really appreciate it if someone could take a look at my classes, SATs, and such and tell me if Wesleyan is too much of a reach.

3.77 ish GPA, unweighted
My school refuses to weight GPAs, or to put them on a 4 point scale (my transcript says 94.37, not 3.7) They also don't give us a class rank, so I can't really provide that info. It's a pretty small prep school in Virginia. Most of our classes are pretty rigorous (even the non-APs), definitely more so than at the public schools in the area. We don't have much of a reputation to out of state schools though - especially not those outside the mid-atlantic region. A pretty high percentage of people who graduate my school end up at UVA or Virginia Tech.

My SATs are kinda low:
math - 640 (just retook them, hopefully this went up considerably)
c.r - 740
writing - 690 (i'm hoping this went up some too - i'm a fairly good writer, I would say, so I'm not sure why it was so low in the first place)
National Merit Commended Student (commeded scholar? can't remember the official title)

AP US History-5
AP English Lang-4
AP Spanish-5
AP World History-3 (sophmore year)
(AP Scholar with Honors)

Freshman and sophmore years I was in honors math classes, junior year I took precalc and now I'm taking AP Calc (and struggling a lot - I'm an english person)

This year I'm taking:
AP Bio, AP Gov, AP Calc, AP Lit, and Spanish lit (this will my 6th year of Spanish)

ECs
band - all four years - i play the sax
spanish club - all four years - copresident this year
model UN - junior and senior year - president this year
national honor society - 10 - 12 (junior national honor society in 9th grade)
varsity field hockey - all 4 years
varsity lacrosse -all 4 years
I've volunteered with my area rec center and coached 10 - 12 year olds in volleyball (fall and spring) 9th, 10th and 11th grade
and I volunteered at a children's hospice this summer
This isn't an E.C, but I also recieved a Scholarship Award from my school (Brian Slattery McCann Memorial Scholarship award, if the name is at all important)

hm I'm not sure if this actually matters at all, I have a feeling it does not, but it's on the common app so i thought i'd throw it on here: i also have a dual citizenship with canada.

any help is appreciated...is there any hope for me with my mediocre SATs?
thanks!
