Chance Me Please!

I am only a sophomore at a highly competitive public high school in CT. I have not taken any exams yet, but I am curious as to what my chance are currently and what i can do in the next two years to increase my chances.

GPA: 3.2 unweighted(averaged past 2 years) I take 3 honors classes a year
Rank: I don't know but top half at least
ECs: Swimming and Diving 2 years varsity(hopefully senior captain)
Freshman Football
Track 2 years(hopefully varsity this year)
School Blood Drive Co-head Coordinator
Class Senator(elected)
FBLA (Future Business Leader of America) member
Community Service: 50 hours (not for school)
Jobs: Lifeguard as a pool club in the summer

Seeing how I have two more years ahead of me, what do you recommend I do? Do I need APs? Whats my target for SATs and ACTs? Do I need more EC's? I know my gpa is my weakness, but what should my gpa goal be for the next two years? Any more advise you can give is really appreciated!

You defently need AP classes and a high SAT. I'm not totally sure, but I would aim for 1350 or higher. More EC's can never hurt. As for your GPA, just work as hard as you can and stay focused on your goal.
