Kuz: there are no great books I know of to start you out now. I suggest exploring the
premed section of medicalstudent.net, which is basically an online book... better than
any paper book for you at your stage. Here is response to a similar question posed by
another high schooler.
For now, perusing medicalstudent.net, looking at the high school and college sections,
browsing the medical school clinical section, and figuring out where you go to college
will be a good start.

I wouldn't get much more specific about things now. Getting into a good college is
most important for you now. Figure out which colleges you are interested in have good
premed programs. Do this by calling around and asking to be put in contact with the
designated pre-med advisor from each college. If they won't do that for you, dust your
shoes off and walk away!
