这是哪里出了问题?

4.0 gpa, 1580 sat, 12 aps (10 are 5's, 2 are 4's), ib program, applied for math major at most schools, female

2 year usamo qualifier (for context there are only about 20 female usamo qualifiers in the nation, all other female usamo qualifiers in my state got into mit)

usapho silver medalist

4 year aime/mpfg qualifier, various awards for top scoring amc10/12 (jane street etc.)

4 years of math coaching (two separate clubs, 100+ students)

3 years of summer math program, 1 year as a counselor for the program

2 research papers, one received a poster presentation award at a conference

4 years of violin in school's top orchestra, some regional awards

300+ volunteer hours

4 years of citizen science outreach (leading hikes, organizing events, documenting over 3000 wildlife observations)

3 years of jrotc with officer position

Now, I know this isn't great (too STEM focused, not enough leadership or art), but I thought it was pretty good at least?
