You should talk to your guidance counselor before you start school. They can probably point you in the right direction of classes to take, lots of math and business classes. I don't know if your school has a business program like mine but if you do, it would be a great thing to apply for. And probably trying to get a job with a bank through your school or OJT program would really give you some experience.

And with the woman thing, as long as you work hard and know your stuff, there should be no problem.

Best of luck!

Having a B.S. from a university myself, i would say that Finance is the major you want to go into with a minor in Economics, and Wall Street prefers Ivy League universities, or at the very least the most prestigious public university in your state. Get involved in as many clubs, sports, fraternities, etc. you can possibly schedule yourself for, work part-time the whole time you are going to school also to avoid any unnecessary debt you will later regret. The busier you are the the better you handle that, the better you look to an employer. In High School i would say take as many money-oriented classes as you can, such as Accounting, Calculus, even physics and psychology can help you out here. If you can get into Honor's classes definately do those instead of regular classes. Also, most high schools offer dual-enrollment where you can take college classes the last year or two of high-school. Ive known people to do this and wasn't wierd at all. Of course, you will have to take your ACT/SAT as soon as possible.
Of course, no matter how good you may sound or look, if you can't spell or have proper grammar you dont stand a chance. It looks as though youre lazy to other people.

If Economics or Accounting are available, take them. Anything on Business or Investing. Also Math, English, History, etc. Is there a course on using computers?

First off I think your overhtinking it a little. Finish high school and then dive into college....I personnaly think it does not matter all that much what classes you take in College. Your really not learning the material...you'll forget that....Your learning HOW TO LEARN and how to work under stress!

Not to be rude but it's very important that you learn how to spell!
