As I have often written, it is healthier to find a college that fits you, rather than trying to fit you to a particular college.
Filtering everything you do through the filter of college admissions can really distort your high school experience.
How much control do your parents have over what you do? Can you do the fundraiser as you originally wanted? Can you pursue the interests that you genuinely have? Can you tell your parents less about what you are doing (while still giving them respect as parents)?
It sounds like you are a hard worker. I hope you have good friends and also enjoy yourself.
In California you have excellent public universities. There are other schools on your other thread, apparently, but in CA I would definitely apply to state universities as a priority. (I believe EC’s are less important there…) During college, you can intern, work, volunteer and get summer jobs to enhance job prospects.
In the meantime I hope you can enjoy the rest of high school. If your parents create stress (and of course they are doing so out of love), talk to your guidance counselor or other counselor at school.
