getting into a top grad school
 

I am a freshman UGA honors, double major in biochemistry/molecular biology and genetics. I am interested in pursuing research as a career, and I want to begin now to do everything in my power to ensure that I can get my graduate education at one of our nation's top universities. My absolute favorite is Yale, and some of my others are Johns Hopkins, Columbia, Stanford, Duke. Does anybody have any suggestions as to what I can with my life as an undergraduate to help the possibility of admission to one of these schools? I am already making straight As with a full load of tough honors classes, and am starting research in a lab next semester.
