GPA help?

I am currently a sophomore, and my first semester was terrible, but my second is going great, what are my chances of getting into colleges like NYU, UCLA, UPenn, Penn State? I want to do pre-med.

9th grade:

Semester 1
Algebra 2: A
Biology: A
English 9: A
Orchestra: A
PE 9: A
Spanish: A
World Geography: A

Semester 2
Algebra: B
Biology: B+
English 9: A
Health: A
Orchestra: A
PE 9: A
Spanish: A

10th grade

Semester 1
Ap European History: C
Chemistry Honors: C
English 10: A
Leadership: A
Pre-Calculus: D (have to go to summer school for this, but not sure how high i'm allowed to get it up to)
Spanish: B

Semester 2 (to the date)
I have all A's except for a B in pre-calculus.

I play Badminton, volunteer at the library, and at the local hospital twice a week.
I haven't taken the SAT yet, but I've taken a couple of practice ones, and I scores above 2300 on all of them.

Please HELP! I'm scared I won't get into any colleges at all
Is there anything i should do differently to get into the college of my choice? If so, what can I do? Any suggestions would really help.
