High School Sophomore Grades – What do I do??

I got a 4.0 unweighted GPA for my freshman year, taking honors geometry and biology.

I guess I kind of let down my guard, because this year, with taking AP bio and honors chemistry, advanced algebra my GPA suddenly dropped and now I have a 3.88 cumulative. I also only got a 4 on my ap exam.

I have an 800 in math II and haven’t yet gotten a score back for sat 2 bio.

I’ve gotten leadership positions in a big service club at school as one of the secretaries, and I also formed a new math club with a few of my friends, which I am leader of as well.

I’m worried, because the students and my school are very competent and so they have cumulative 4.0s and tons of club activities, and I’m now worried that I won’t be able to get into one of the top schools. If I don’t get in to the one of the top, then I have to just make do with a local community college in my home country and I really don’t want to do that.

Should I be really concerned? I know that 3.88 isn’t necessarily bad, but given my circumstances, I really need as close to 4.0 as I can get…

Is it a lost cause? How should I prepare for my junior year?
