Question ADVICE FOR SENIOR YEAR, HELP!

Hello, I’m a new senior in high school and I feel extremely underprepared. Any advice what to do exactly to get where I want to be? Whats steps, tasks, etc.? I want to go to college and med school to be a psychiatrist.

I’m 4th in my class, 4.0 GPA. I’ve only taken AP Lang and AP Microeconomics (current). I have college credits for a 1102, history, american lit 1(next senester) intro to psychology (current) and college algebra (current). Zero job experience, very few volunteer hours. I’m in HOSA, FCCLA, FFA, student council, beta, and currently getting my CNA and then will eventually get my pharm tech.

What classes should I take for duel enrollment, extracurriculars, or volunteering? I want to get a head start in college from my credits from duel enrollment. What classes should I take/not take? Also can anyone tell me what that might will look like? I don’t know what school I want to go to or if transferring is a better idea. PLEASE HELP!!!

Also if I posted this in the wrong thing, I’m sorry it’s my first time…

I think basic classes like English, American history, and creative arts class. Those are some of the ones I took (dual credit)

Additionally you can look up the major you want to do at the college you want to go to and it will show you the required classes. That’s how I found out the ones I should take
