Please elaborate, question as posted doesn't make much sense.

I am unfamiliar with this degree.  In the United States, some people get bachelor's degrees in biology or chemistry, then apply to medical school for an advanced degree.  All pre-medical students I can think of take chemistry through sophomore organic chemistry.

I live in Australia and it is possible to get into Bachelor of Medicine straight from high school here, it is extremely competitive though.
I was thinking that high school chemistry isn't enough so I was thinking of learning some topics studies in medicine during the summer holidays.

The level of chemistry depends on the country you are in; you should ask someone who is a Medicine Bachelor in Australia. But I guess hugh school chemistry won't be enough  :)
