Because of your interest in math and economics, try to qualify for AIME/Math Olympiad and/or one of the programming based olympiads and/or a mathematical modeling contest and/or a nationally recognized science fair:

Get a higher ACT score - at least in the top 1% nationally (33C). Improve your math and science ACTs to as high as you can get them.

Keep your grades up first semester senior year.

Apply early enough to be considered for a full ride at Emory (sometime in November) or perhaps Early Decision I, which is though to be easier than Early Decision II and Regular Decision.
