Getting accepted
You should go to the university website (links)
and find the application material.
Here are some old exams that I have gathered from other students: oldexams
They are in pdf format and do not include the questions on Chemistry and Biology (hopefully I will find some of those later).
I just got some Biology and Chemistry sample tests, thanks to Taher!

Books for the medical program - my recommendations
My advice: Click on My Notes and look through the topic lists (the curriculum for the 1st year!) and then you can go to the bookstore and look through the books I recommend. See which one you like the best.
