go to class. study more than you did in highschool. dont let alcohol or drugs become apart of your life.
Look into UMBC U of Maryland Baltimore County. they have a very high % of there Pre Med students accepted in to Med School.

At the elite schools a very high percent of the premed students are accepted at Med School. Elite schools does not include UMBC.
Check the US News rankings on line. Any of the top 50 schools will give you a very good start on your medical education, and any of the top twenty schools will almost guarantee you admittance to med school if you do well in your premed courses. And, if you cannot afford those schools (most of them are VERY expensive) then you definitely can go to almost any respectable university, state college, etc and if you are a top student, you will have a fighting chance of getting into med school.
You are on the right track., Keep up with your math skills, do your AP science courses, and you are going to get where you want to go.
Good luck!
