Answer:
You absolutely have to focus on getting those PSAT/SAT scores up. You may want to consider taking the ACT in addition, or instead, of the SATs.

Make sure that you are taking as rigorous a course load as you can...e.g. honors and AP classes.

In your clubs, try to take/get a leadership role in one or more.

Get some community service on your resume, hopefully in an area that you feel passionate about, or something that's related to your clubs.

Be sure to visit the colleges in which you are interested, let them know you're interested. It makes them more interested in you!

Best of luck to you. Stay focused on your education and I'm sure good things will happen.
