Chance me for Villanova EA

Can you guys help me decide if Villanova EA is realistic for me? Visited in the spring and loved it. Want to major in finance.

First gen

3.82 UW, 4.25 weighted, 8 APs by graduation (school limits the amount we can take but I took basically the hardest courses available every year) 1 dual enrollment and the rest honors, strong upward trend

So far took 4 AP tests and got 4s on all

1430 super score (690 math, 740 rw)

For activities I am a 3 sport vars athlete, captain for lacrosse 2 years, worked at my schools basketball camp for 3 years, volunteer youth lacrosse coach in my community, co-founder of my schools fitness club for 2 years and grew the club from 2-40+ members, and member of thr school orchestra

My honors are not really that strong, academic half scholarship for all 4 years, NHS, AP scholar

just kinda worried about my SAT being a little low and my math especially

Thank you!

What are my chances for these schools

First time posting here, can you guys tell me if this is a balanced/realistic list of schools for me? Are there some schools that I shouldn't bother applying to? Are there any schools I should look into? Is there any more info I should add? I want to major in finance/ something business related. Im from New York and don't want to go too far.

1410 SAT, trying to get 1450+ superscore

94 cumulative weighted GPA, upward trend (95.7 junior year while taking harder classes)

4 APs, got 4s on all of them (Micro, lang, APUSH and AP world) . My school doesn't let us take AP classes freshman year and I could only take 1 sophomore year. I am going to take 5 next year including AP calc AB which will hopefully help since I want to do something business related. Aside from AP classes I took all honors classes.

For extracurriculars I played 3 varsity sports (starter for one), community service, I worked at a restaurant, and I worked as a camp counselor for 2 summers. I also played club lacrosse for 2 summers and AAU basketball since I was around 11.
