33 on ACT, good enough for Ivy League?

@T26E4: I’m just a sophomore right now, so nothing’s set in stone, but I am in advanced classes with mostly A’s and the occasional B. I haven’t taken any SAT ll’s yet, but plan to soon. I will have taken 10 AP’s by the time I apply for college, and 14 by the time I graduate.

My EC’s kind of kill me though:
I am a varsity football player, but not a good enough one to play in college
State qualified in Debate (and possibly event captain soon)
Was elected Secretary and then Vice-President of a Jewish Youth Organization
Have worked at a local carwash since age 12, and plan to all through high school.

I actually thought that my EC’s were really good until I saw everybody else’s

I am a pretty good essay writer (despite the poor ACT writing grade) so I’m not too worried there
