It sounds like you just finished sophomore year. You have a 2170 on the SAT’s. That’s a great score, especially for a sophomore. Your score will only go up. You can also try the ACT. You mention that your parents are from Africa. If you are black and a US citizen, your high SAT scores will make you very desirable to colleges, especially if you are male. Your school is well known to colleges. They will know how to interpret your GPA. Of course you need a variety of schools on your list, but as long as you keep your grades up, I think you will have some good acceptances/choices.
