Don't bash me because I'm a newbie..

I don't think your questions are stupid, but I do think your approach is quite rude. You may want to rethink your tone and approach because you'll get more helpful answers.

Do you just read posts in hopes of finding the ones that you can answer in a rude manner? You are not a credit to KD at all.

Hmm, this newbie seems a little "batty"...

OP - I'm going to ditto the advice that everyone has given here: make sure you get your GPA as high as you can over the next couple of years, be active in a diverse number of extracurricular activities, and definitely make sure you network so you can secure recommendations. Start with your teachers at school, friends of your parents, members of your place of worship - the list goes on.

Also, please be aware that the tone of your initial post was rather off-putting, especially to seasoned posters. Imagine if you had said something like this to an active during recruitment - chances are, the active would not have found it amusing. Politeness gets you far in this world...

Regardless, I wish you success when the time comes for you to participate in recruitment.
