<p>Actually I think it’s good you’re asking early, although I can’t say where I think you’d get in or not, I can give some advice. As you said, keep you GPA up, and extracurriculars but you NEED to get your ACT score up. And honestly I’d say take the SAT as well, just in case your score kicks-ass. If there’s a way for you to do a summer course (Columbia, Brown, Georgetown are just a few of the maaany schools that offer them) could only increase your chances (and with some you can get college credit, like at USC). So keep the good work up, focus on the testing and good luck :)</p>
