The above is the best advice that can be "heard" by someone in your position. I hope you listen to it. At your age and experience, you can not appreciate how difficult it will be to maintain the level of discipline needed to actually accomplish the goals you have listed. College is full of distractions and temptations that can derail your future. Make sure you come out of college WITH CHOICES.
Good grades won't cut it.... make them great.
Some extracurricular activity won't cut it..... do everything you can socially and in research and extra projects
Good luck and have fun!
