Target School Advice

I will be attending a target finance undergrad school starting next year. Although I have some family in the field, I am not well informed on the nuanced differences between front office Wall Street jobs. What do you guys recommend I do to get a better grasp of what field I might be best suited for? I have my summer free and plenty of time on my hands for the first year and the following summer of my first year of college. If you could go back, where would you start?
