Well your AP’s sound great, BUT AP classes are not really a factor in College Admissions, Yes they show you may be capable of college level work, but they dont get you IN. You may be better advised to channel your academics into SAT subject tests, take between 2-4 in the BEST subjects, perhaps where you got 4 pr 5 at AP. For the Top LAC (like Swarthmore) you probably need at least 2 SAT subject tests at 700+. SAT needs to be around +/- 2100 the higher on Critical Reading or Math the better. Forget more AP’s bring up you unweighted GPA to closer to 3.8 min and take subject tests, no more AP’s…just my 5c
