I want to work in the medical field and become an orthopedist.?
Currently I'm a freshman in high school and I want to study medicine. The study of Orthopaedics has interested me and I want to follow a career path related to this field.

And if so, should I spend 8 years in college or switch to a medical school? What is the better option?
