Just looking for some ideas...
'm not a legacy, I'm middle class, white. GPA 96.5, top 1% of class of 300. SAT's 2200, SAT 2's, 750, 740, 800, ACT 34. Lots of AP courses, above average athlete,(Although not college qualified). Class officer, above average with a musical instrument(all county, but not all state), and run a small revenue producing website. I know these questions must be asked all the time....but can I get into an Ivy?

Probably not, based on what you've provided.
But you could def get into a bunch of really really good schools. Your ACT score's pretty impressive.

If you applied to all 8 ivies, there's certainly a chance you'd get into one. Especially given that there are other schools more selective than some of the ivies.
But if you're planning to apply to all the ivies, you clearly don't know what you want in a school, for they are very different.
