You don't need math beyond algebra to do well in Chem or Physics, so no worries there. Take an introductory chemistry class (perhaps over the summer) to better prepare for general chemistry if you feel like you don't have a good basis for it from high school. Chemistry courses are really the ones that are most important in this pre-med track.

Try to shadow a few physicians to see whether you can see yourself doing what they do.

Also, please save some of your general education classes to spread them out across 4 years, so that you aren't stuck with 4 science courses per term later on.
