If you want to give yourself the easiest time of college and the best odds for admission in general, then consider this:

–Take a nice broad range of elective courses, because you’ll need to take a range of general education courses in college. Ensure that you have four full years of English and math (the most advanced ones your high school will offer you) and at least 3 of lab science, preferably bio, chem and physics.

–Try to get a full range of honors and extracurriculars. Do some sports, some arts, some social groups. Try for national honor society and if there’s a future business club, definitely choose it.

Note: I was chair of the review committee for my college’s business career programs last year–finance was one of the programs we reviewed.
