I’m an upcoming sophomore, and I hope to apply for HPME, HYP, JHU, Columbia and the Combined BS/MD 7-Year Program at TCNJ. So I’m wondering if I’m going the right way.

Freshman Year
Weighted - ~4/4.0
Unweighted - ~3.6/4.0

SAT I: 1770/M-640 V-600 W-530 (I know it’s really, really bad. I plan on taking a course before junior year to pull it up to 2200+.)
SAT II Bio M: 740

AP Biology 5 or 4ish (I waiting for my snail mail)

French Club (I’m prolly dropping this as it’s useless)
Technology Student Association (I’m vice president next year and I plan on being president for the junior and senior year)
Science League (I might run for an officer position in junior and senior year)
American Computer Science League
Dance Team (I made it in; it starts next year)
Columbia SHP next year

I do sports outside of school such as snowboarding and tennis.
I have been dancing for 5 years.
I’ve taken a couple courses outside of school.

Future Activities
Varsity tennis or cross country
Volunteering at the hospital
Externship in senior year
French Honor Society
National Honor Society
NJ Governor’s School
Maybe start Science Honor Society?

So what should I do? Am I doing anything wrong? Feedback is greatly appreciated.
