Hello Everybody! Seeking Advice

I am currently a 16 year old student in the Junior year of High school. I one day hope to become a professional trader. I have played the simulator on Investopedia multiple times and have made over 3-4 percent in two weeks consistently. This summer I made eight percent return in two weeks. I am currently at 11 percent return in 2 weeks in the current game I am in. In school, I am in the Economics club and Investment club at school. I am currently ranked one in the Investment club game. I go to a very good public school; it is ranked at roughly two hundredth in the nation. I will trade using real money later this year or early next year. I'm currently working on doing well in school so that I may go to an excellent college.

Please post advice relating to college, investing, etc that you may think is useful to me.

Hope you guys have had a nice Thanksgiving!
Thanks.
