High Schooler Looking For Advice

Hi all, I currently attend a target high school (Andover/Trinity/Stuyvesant) and am going to a prestigious business program (Wharton/Cornell Dyson/Ross). I am an incoming summer analyst at a small pe shop (crestview/bazaar ventures/odyssey). When I get to school I am going to join a top club (think WITG SSG/CFA/MII) and willing to rush a top frat if needed. I don't know if I want to go to a MM HF, MF PE, or RX yet. I don't think I could work in an environment like Evercore or P72 that gives anyone with a pulse an offer but would be open to PJT RSSG or Citadel L/S. I have already read Moyer, Caesar's Palace, and The Intelligent Investor. Any career advice or additional resources that would be helpful? Thank you!

Holy cow(think gee-whiz/crikey/good-grief) you qualify(think restate/add additional information) way too much(think often/commonly/a ton). 

Also, congrats (think good job/good luck pal/atta-boy, buster) on umich.
