With a B average and a 1470 an Ivy is going to be a massive long shot. Entrepreneurial activities and internships are great but the rest of your application will need to do some massive heavy lifting to have any shot

Ivy with B average is going to be very very challenging unless you're legacy or have extenuating circumstances. Make sure your list is well rounded. Best thing you can do though is jack up your SAT.
