Very strong test scores and grades. Don’t worry about retaking that SAT.

The biggest thing adcoms look for by far is passion in your activities. I see a little bit, but your activities are kinda unfocused. However, there’s nothing you can do about that now, thoug it will hurt. Is there anything interesting about you? Do you have a special unique hobby, special beliefs, interests? have you had meaningful experiences?

On your essays: Yes, if faith is part of you. However, i would revise what other people have been saying. Don’t show yourself. Show them your best parts w/o lying or pretending. Basically, don’t show them something about you that is bad.

I would say you’ll be alright if you have a good essay and recs, that really can convey other details about you.
