If you are in school, learn science and maths well. This knowledge is vital. Don't care too much about grades if getting admission in nearby college won't be difficult. Use the rest of your time to hang out with your friends, excercise and sharpen your skills. First 2 are not optional.

If you did all the 3 things I mentioned for school years - you will be a healthy, social and capable individual at this point. If you have already fucked up one or more of the 3, it's alright - you can fix that now but do it asap.
