Undergraduate EDII Options

So I fucked up quite a bit in high school and have to most likely choose between the following options for college:

  1. EDII to Middlebury/Bowdoin, in which I have no chance of getting in, and plan on going to IndianaU and try to get into Kelly/IBW or pay less at VCU/GMU/Virginia Tech and try to transfer to UVA (in-state VA)

  2. EDII to Lehigh since it's pretty close to home and the most selective school I have about a 50/50 shot of getting into, and doing the IBE program to try and get a Big4/quant job before MBA

  3. EDII to NYU CAS and try to internal transfer to Stern

  4. EDII to Oxford College at Emory and set myself up for regional IB and a target MBA

I would really appreciate if someone could let me know what they'd do if they were in my shoes.
Are any of options 2-4 better than the second half of option 1?
