Yes, they know students from top prep schools have more competition, more academic opportunities, and resources. GC’s at top prep schools should have good data on how students from your HS shake out in the college admissions game.
They also have a good idea where your 3.48 stands in your class. In general they like to see your grades (effort) match your test scores (ability).
Your subject tests are great so send them they will not hurt.
Your EC’s with TV club and non-profit depend on what you did with those opportunities. If you sat in your basement and had a beer with your BFF and little brother they will look like “filler” on your application. On the other hand if you produced films and raised lots of $$$$$ in your non profit they will look excellent on your application.
Agree with above comments about your uncle.
