Hey, also a rising senior here. Of course you can get into a decent college! They are obv going to look at your GPA, but a really good college essay and/or interview could definitely help your chances. However, something that would really help your application would be a higher SAT score. 1200 is a good starting point, but a lot of colleges nowadays are looking for something 1300 and up to even be considered. Also, maybe try taking to ACT since the field you want to go in is science-focused. Good luck!
