For extracurriculars, does your school have a French National Honors Society, or any HSs for subject areas you are strong in? If so, look into applying in your sophomore/junior year. At my school, even if you aren't an honors student, you can qualify as long as you have service hours and an A at the regular level, so like LydB said look into community service! If your school offers a weightlifting class as a replacement for gym/health (if you have to take it), that would probably be much more interesting for you. Finally, look into doubling up in science and taking tougher courses, especially AP Biology since that's your main interest for a major. However, make sure you are absolutely prepared, having taken any prerequisite science/math courses, you can even do an introductory virtual summer course to prepare. You can always try clubs that even slightly interest you, and leave if you don't like them. Good luck!
