Geesh...you won't be a very functional human being then.
My advice:
It's a very good idea to start early. When I wanted to go to law school, I did the pre-law thing and worked at a law school. I got to schmoooze with law folk and take practice LSATS. It was fun stuff at the time but I decided before I graduated that my heart and mind were elsewhere that I found more interesting.
Remember that law school isn't for those without a degree of patience, diligence, determination, and logic. It isn't so much about being "smart." Plus, there are graduate degrees that let you exercise your love of certain aspects of the law without law school, if that's your desire.
Since you're starting so early, you have time to feel your way through, get frustrated and take a break, and then get right back on it. But don't get frustrated and give up completely, youngin. Your "youth" is supposed to give you energy and an ability to be optimistic about your future.
