Uh I don’t know specifically what you are asking about good universities besides rankings but I’ll presume you are talking about either selective as in sub 50% admit and value schools.

So for selective school your essay should be top notch grammatically correct light humor avoid cliches and sob stories and focus on yourself and not critical of others

Your SAT should be good for most schools in the country assuming a 1450

The GPA I’m assuming 2nd semester of 11th was a 3.1 but your averages are 3.98 UW and 4.2 W that should gain admittance to most schools combined with your SAT

For volunteer Hours it is kinda a non factor unless you are very dedicated to that such as 5/week/year and you stick with one group.

Your ECs need to have a bit more preferably 5-7 activities that show responsibilities and commitment and have officer/leadership position in at least 2 to really be competitive at selective schools.

As for value schools most of them are in the Midwest and have te output merit and need aid though that may be different for international students. As long as you have the equivalent of 27ish ACT(I believe a 1400 exceeds this) you should gain admittance to most if not all of the schools for aid just improve your essays!

I use niches list of value schools

Hope this helps!
