How do i look for these colleges so far?

I'm interested in UCLA, Stanford and UC Berkeley! I'm a freshmen and the first semester I did poorly and ended with a 3.48, however this semester I will most likely end with a 4.0 or 4.1. My classes are: ALARP (college level language arts), Honors US history, PE, Choir, Debate, Spanish 1, Honors biology, and Algebra.

Sophomore year: I am taking 1 AP and 1 honors class.

Junior year: 5 or 6 AP classes and 1 honors

Senior year: 4 or 5 APs

Activities: Will play tennis all four years, president of speech in debate and will be president of debate, key club, running for student office next year, will be president of amnesty, co-founder of a women's study club and mock trial. Along with helping my mom with various community service activities, will be working at a crisis nursery and possibly a suicide help line for teenagers.

What else can I do?

    A Semester GPA of 3.48 is actually seen as good, especially for a High School Freshman! If you continue to improve, and you do very well in your Honors and AP Classes, you'll be set as far as that goes. All of your activites show that you are well rounded and capable of balancing a busy schedule. Being a President of a club shows you are not afraid to take responsibility and that you have Leadership Skills, which is great as well. About the only thing I could suggest would be to volunteer at a place that is related to something you might consider majoring in when you do get to college. e.g. candy striper at a hospital if interested in nursing.
