Need help and advice please

I am a sophomore and transfer into a top school for IB. I got a D in calc last semester but 3.9 from last university. I know this is stupid but I had around a B until the final which I tanked. I got an A in my last university but they made me retake it. I realize I cannot get a summer '27 internship and need help figuring out what to do and how to recruit my senior year for IB. I eventually want to go into VC. Please help me in figuring out what to do so I do not waste this opportunity. Thanks.
