How can I do better?!?
I go to a poorer school in Kentucky and am doing outstanding with what I have. I have a 32 ACT, great EC’s with leadership positions, I have lots of community service hours, 7 AP classes, and a bunch of honors but I still have relatively low chances on a bunch of colleges what can I do better with what I have?

I think that you are doing amazing for what is offered to you. The only thing that I could recommend is just ensuring that your GPA stays high. You have many great extracurriculars and academics, so just ensuring that you continue to pass and excel in the classes that you are taking would be your best bet. Maybe start working on letters of recommendation letters or potentially taking the SAT to pair alongside your ACT if possible!
You’re pretty much doing really good, what would say is to focus on your grades a keep your GPA high. Colleges look at what you’re school offers so they will basically compare you too what your school offers. For you’re ACT score if you’re aiming for Ivy’s try taking it again but you don’t have to because you’re score is actually not that bad. Keep doing more community service but try doing ones that also focuses on what you want to study. Try applying to some internships.
Those are what I think you could do with the information who gave.
Hopes this helps:)
