Or should i focus on school, reading, boring crap like that along with exercising?? like whats more important? either way imma do both but which is more realistic? can i really be an MMA fighter? or should i settle with being a normal old college student? please help…this is my life im talking about here i need as much help as possible

In my humble opinion, you need to concentrate on school work. The reason is this: the professional fighter’s career expectancy is just about the same as the professional ballet dancer’s. You can do it until your body gives out, provided you are lucky enough to be able to make a living doing it. Then, if you are still fit enough, you can teach it to other people.
If you don’t have any education, you don’t have any options. You are either a champ or a bum. It’s a very competitive world out there, even if you get a good education. There is less every year available to those without one.
I’m glad you are brave and can give as good as you get, but you are a really skinny guy. Do you have other sports such as baseball that you can do well? I am asking because you seem dedicated, and you may be able to get a scholarship to college if you combine schoolwork and success in a sport. It can even be track & field.
My brother was also a tall skinny guy in high school, same build as you. His sport was wrestling. He was really good. He wrestled in the 100-lb class (had to stop eating basically before a match to make weight). If someone wanted to pick on him, he would challenge them to meet him on the wrestling mat! He wasn’t a great student either, but he kept up with the work and went to college.
You have a few more years to grow and develop. Keep working out, but keep studying too.
