Getting into an Ivy League university is more difficult than it was when I applied in the early '80's. I think that now they're looking for depth in one or two extracurricular activities rather than the 'well-rounded' that was more in vogue earlier. I would say that writing a book, especially if you could get it published, would be extremely helpful. Poems not so much, probably. Unless, again, published. If you've been doing something for two years make sure you keep doing it, take as many AP classes as possible, and make sure your essays are kick-ass. Do something unusual and stick with it if you can (hence the approval for book-writing). Make sure your standardized test scores are very very good. Study and/or hire help.
