1.Take a challenging course load---and do well: This is a given. Admissions officers want proof that you're academically advanced enough to take advantage of the resources at their school. Take AP and Honors classes in subjects that interest you, and avoid "easy A" electives like Physics for Poets or the History of Basket Weaving. Also be sure to take four core classes every year: one English, one math, one history, and one science---minimum! If offered at your school, seriously consider taking the same foreign language all four years of high school. Just don't overwhelm yourself---you want to maintain at least a 3.5 GPA for highly competitive colleges and 3.0 for less competitive colleges.
