<p>Don’t worry; you’re still a junior so you still have time. But you have a lot of stuff coming up for you:</p>

<p>-PSAT, be sure to score high – many Ivy applicants are semifinalists. Check the cutoff scores for your state.
-SAT/ACT: get started ASAP and ideally get the score you want before senior year, otherwise you’ll be rushing.</p>

<p>Keep up the 4.0 GPA throughout junior years and first semester senior year. Does your school offer more AP/IB classes that you’re not taking? If so, consider self-studying some AP courses.

<p>As for extracurriculars, find something you’re passionate about and pursue them. Get leadership positions. Work your way up.</p>
