Wanting Advice for A Highschool Student

Greetings, I am a junior in high school. I have been wanting a career in asset management since I was 13. Soon to become a senior, college applications are approaching. I have a close to perfect SAT score, close to perfect SAT subject test scores(Math and World History), top 3% rank, and a 3.9 unweighted GPA. My dream school is UPENN due to it being the top feeder school(as per my research) into wall street and also because I love the campus overall. However, I am not sure that I will get in. Any advice on how to get into Upenn or top schools for wallstreet? Certain things I need in Application Process, etc? Also any other top ranking schools that I should consider to get into Wallstreet?

Thank You
