I think your stats are great, but all of the schools you’re considering, especially Exeter and Lawrenceville, are heavily discussion based, so make sure you enjoy having to talk and share your ideas in front of others. I would also make sure that it’s you yourself who wants to go to BS - not your parents pushing you to. AOs can easily distinguish if an applicant is truly interested in BS, or if their parents are pushing them to apply. Your strong skills in math and music will help you a lot, but if you are applying from a really competitive district, you need to make it clear in your essays and interviews what you are passionate about and how you can pursue that passion at a BS. Try to distinguish yourself from all of the highly-qualified applicants who are applying to BS in your area. For interviews, treat it as a conversation and tell the interviewer exactly why you want to attend their BS. Finally, your teacher recommendations are extremely important as well, and I would definitely recommend giving your counselor and/or principal your list of accomplishments (CV).
