High School Senior Looking to get into IB

Hi, I am Senior In High School who is very interested in either I-Banking or Hedge Fund Management. I was wondering if anyone had any advice on what I can do now to prepare myself to be the most competitive when recruiting starts. I already am reading the WallStreet Journal every day and keeping up with the markets. I was also wondering if anyone had any suggested resources or books I could look at now to prepare myself.
