The final two years are the clinical years and place students in healthcare facilities to perform clinical rotations. Surgery is a required rotation and some schools offer clerkships in plastic surgery.

If you know you aren't really heading in the right path, you are the only responsible person to switch your life around and succeed in life. Because if you yourself doesn't do it, what make's you think the people you hang around with will care if you end up in the street's, or in prison. They are just worried about themselves and no one else, and you should do the same.
