How to be Crème de la Crème at GOLDMAN SACHS

i want to join Goldman once i go to a target IVY for undergrad (17 year old at the moment)

 i want to be better than everyone there in terms of finance knowledge, practical and soft skills . 

i want the MDs to beg me to stay after i tell them that i am leaving for Apollo or GSB 

any unconventional tips for my goal ?

This is 100% serious. Ever since I changed my title on linkedin to SA 2022 at an EB, been getting a lot of random high schoolers sending linkedin requests lol.
