Medical schools usually prefer students that have experienced life in all that it has to give. They look for well-developed applicants and the only way to develop as a human being is to live life. I wouldn't worry too much about getting into medical school early, you have to find yourself first before you commit to the horrors that is medicine.
If you are still in high school, focus on learning how to learn -- training yourself to ace all your classes -- this will help you in college and medical school.

Hi Salom,
You can go to college at any age as long as you have all the requirements of that school. If you want to enroll in a program you will probably have to have at least finished HS and have 120 credits. Some schools have options to take stand alone college courses at any age, you just have to do research and see what the college requires.
Hope this helps!

Hello Salom,
If you want to start college early and skip some of your high school years then what you can consider testing to skip grades or go and get your GED and apply for university/college to expedite your path towards medical school.
