In the fall I am going to be a junior in high school and I will start taking chemistry.
I want to be a doctor very bad and I know that it is important right now to learn a lot of science.
I want to start learning chemistry and other sciences before the school year starts so I will be even better at it.
Can someone recommend a website that I can go to to start learning basic chemistry??
thanks!!

Get a general chemistry textbook. Read it and work every example and problem in each section. If you come to an example problem that you don't understand, ask (on Yahoo Answers). You won't get through the book, but you will have a head start on the vocabulary and the basic problems. The textbook author is your teacher.

Look-up the periodic table. In fact go buy a big poster. Start looking at it and learn which elements are grasses, liquids, and solids. Then look up electrons, neutrons, and positrons. The table defines all chemistry, so start with just learning the basic materials that make up everything on earth.

Go to your library and check out a general chemistry book and start reading it and working the problems

The Periodic Table of the Chemical elements is the
short-hand bible of all chemists.
Memorize:
Atomic number,
Atomic symbol,
Element name,
Atomic mass or weight,
of the first 26 elements.
You'll be miles ahead and glad you did.
There are several books on the market that take you on a tour of the elements, read one. "Nature's Building blocks" by John Emsley is a thick one (527 pages).
