Get your CFI. Get on at a flight school and make a deal with them to get the MEI. Instruct for a year or two. I instructed for just under two years. When I started the regionals weren't looking at anybody with less than 1000/100. Of course, that's not the case right now. There's no telling, it could be back to that by the time you graduate. Take the money you're spending on the multi, get the CFI. Instruct part time while you're finishing school.

You'll be doing yourself a favor by instructing for a while. I just finished groundschool, now in the sim and it's very fast-paced. I wasn't very impressed by the number of people in my class that didn't have any actual and very little real-world experience.
