Sophomore Summer - Honors Program

I have a contact who is an associate at JPM, and he is going to try to get me an interview for their Honors program. I know its tough to get into so I was wondering what would be a good, feasible alternative, for this summer (my sophomore summer) to help in trying to attain an SA position in s/t for next summer. I am at a top 10 eng./science school w/ a 3.8, but its a non target. Would a CS or Math (my double major) internship hurt?

Any advice/ suggestions would be much appreciated.
