I am not going to go for the partying at all, it's just that I believe responsibilites and maturity will help me become a better student and hopefully give me enough will power and motivation to become a doctor. Is this a pipe dream?

Medical school is a long ride...my best advice is to be a well balanced person academically, socially and with your volunteerism.
