What should I focus on going into my junior year?

Hey everyone! Need some advice :) Thanks for reading!

I'm going into my junior year of high school in MI and aspiring to study Accounting @ Ross School of Business (UMich). I have a 3.98 unweighted GPA & 1370 SAT.

Class schedule: AP CSA, AP Bio, AP Chem, AP Calc AB, AP Psych, Concert Orchestra

Interests: Reading & writing book reviews, biking, advocating for my native language classes, making origami & string bracelets, playing Roblox 😋

I need some help in deciding what I should focus on this year. I spread myself too thin sophomore year & fell behind because I couldn't do everything. If you've been through junior year, please give me some advice and help me out! I would also love to turn my hobbies into meaningful activities with impact, so if you have any ideas, send them my way! :))

You said one of your interests is making origami and if you don't know there is an online non-profit, Origami For Good. You make origami and send it to hospitals and it counts for community service hours.
