Best highschool/college/medschool path?

Hello guys, this is my first post so I’m a little naive in what to exactly write and describe.
Well to start off, as of now I’m a sophomore in high school and the core classes I’m currently taking is,
Geometry H, Earth and Space Science H, English II H, & Government H.

My passion is neurology and a little backstory as to why started at the age of 6 when I found out I had ADHD. Being so young I was intrigued by the thought of there being a disorder within my head, and that’s when my passion for the brain started.

A little after I watched this show and in the show was this device that was connected to the brain of patients who were suffering from terminal diseases. To ease their pain the device allowed the patients to jump into a virtual reality which was referred to as “full dive”. Just by connecting with the neurons in the brain it would allow the user to be in such a vivid virtual reality and play games that kids play today. At the same time, the device would numb the user’s muscles and cancel out spinal reflexes which allowed them to avoid using anesthetics.

At that time my passion was really driven, I wanted and still, want to create a device that not only allows patients to jump into a virtual reality but allows neurologist to precisely analyze the brain and figure out how to remove diseases like ADHD, Epilepsy, or aneurysms from the brain. And I know all that sounds like child’s play or like that isn’t possible in my lifetime, but I’m really determined and feel like I can make it happen in my lifetime.

Ok ok, my backstory aside, as of now I plan on taking Pre-Cal next year but other than that I don’t know a good high school plan ( I have 7 periods in total ).

And as of college, I plan on double majoring neurology and computer science if possible. Then I plan on getting a degree and going into med-school to get an MD.

I’m wondering what’s best for my goal, and not only what path should I take but what I should expect for that path, and what’s the best way for me to accomplish my goal. Thank you for taking the time to read, and I appreciate all your answers!
