Chance me for early action please?

So, junior year just ended, and want to hear about where you think I stand in the Yale SCEA pool. Here's all the information:

SAT I (breakdown): 2310 (Critical Reading: 760, Math: 750, Writing: 800)

ACT: 35 (English: 36, Math: 36, Reading: 36, Science: 32)

SAT II: Physics: 800 Chemistry: 800

Unweighted GPA (out of 4.0): 4.0

Rank (percentile if rank is unavailable): 1/250ish

AP (place score in parenthesis): I'm still waiting for my scores, but I took test for:
AP Bio
AP Chem
AP US
AP Lit
AP Psych

Senior Year Course Load:
AP Calc BC
AP Econ Macro
AP Econ Micro
AP Environmental
AP Studio art
AP Spanish
AP Lang

Major Awards (USAMO, Intel etc.): USABO Semifinalist, Scholastic Art and Writing Award Gold Key, Congressional Art Award, Georgetown Junior of the Year Award, UPenn Book Award, local school awards in art, English, science

Extracurriculars (place leadership in parenthesis): Varsity Tennis (Captain), Green Team (President), Spanish Club (co-President), Art Club (President), Ambulance Explorers Club (co-President), Link Crew, Varsity track (8th grade-10th grade), 8 years of acoustic guitar, portfolio art classes (I will be sending a portfolio with my app), National Honor Society

Job/Work Experience: Tutoring (middle school math)

Volunteer/Community service: Volunteer at childrens' art classes (2 summers), volunteer at animal shelter (only in 9th and 10th grade)

Summer Activities: Internship in Hospital Administration (summer before junior year) and Neurobiology (this summer)

Essays: haven't written them yet?

Teacher Recommendation: Both should be good

Counselor Rec: Should be very good

Additional Rec: I might get a rec from the mother of the girl I tutor who also is in charge of Link Crew at school-she would write a really good one about my personality, but would another rec be superfluous?

State (if domestic applicant): Connecticut

School Type: Public (ranked top 100 in nation)

Ethnicity: White

Gender: Female

Income Bracket: >$800,000

Hooks (URM, first generation college, etc.): nope

Thanks for the input!
