Welcome to the med life, I worked at sgu vet hospital for about 3 to 4 years, now I work @ mount Sinai hospital Manhattan, it started sgu and ended up here. I know you got this can do it. Can't wait to see your graduation video ☺️

I respect you so much for saying that you didn't know how to study so that was something that you had to learn. I've realized some people do say in high school they didn't have to study and I never understood that. I would think like dang how do you understand stuff like this.... how can you not study lol😂??? I've always had to study but thank you so much for saying those hard classes will test you. Its basically another obstacle! Definitely good insight!!! Thank you for being really honest!!! So, hopefully physics doesn't kill me too much in my 3rd year of under grad and bio chem 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️ lord have mercy.

I can’t relate to this a lot ever since I was a little girl people would always ask me “what do you wanna be when you grow up? And I said veterinarian 😌 I love animals I grew up with animals around me all the time I’m currently in school to be a vet assistant I wanna gain a lot of experience as much as I can and hopefully be a vet one day!

Hi! It all depends on the veterinarian/clinic and if they're willing to take responsibility for you. In many clinics I've worked at, they will hire people 16-18ish/highschoolers as a kennel tech. Even getting this handling experience is important and helps. If you for sure want to go to vet school, work your way up to a tech. Tell them you're interested in being a tech and they will likely train you up :) I'd contact vets in your area and ask to volunteer or gain experience as a vet tech or kennel tech as a job.

My first choice was a FBI agent but I also want to be a vet because I love caring for animals.

High school is still SO early. If your dream is to become a vet, do just that! No one knows what you're capable of. College is a whole different ballgame and the science classes are hard. But, just like everyone out there who is a vet, we've all had to take the same classes to get where we are. Its doable. You just may have to put in more effort at times than non-science degree seeking people.

I plan on taking a bachelors degree in marine biology first before joining DVM. I’m able to get a first year exemption from a marine bio course since I already have a diploma in marine science but I realised that I would be skipping the first year general mods like general biology, organic chemistry, genetics and physics which are the prerequisites required for DVM. I would be diving straight into year 2 and 3 specialised mods (aquatic animal anatomy, aquatic biology, genetics etc.). Do you think I would still be able to apply for the DVM programme for SGU? Or is it recommended that I take a full 4 years general biology degree instead?

Hi, I am currently a kennel tech at a local vet clinic. When applying to vet school would you count this as animal hours or vet hours? Most of my job takes place in the treatment area and my job description can be similar to a vet assistant (I frequently care for surgical instruments, help restrain, etc). In addition would you submit the total hours worked at the clinic as vet hours since I can frequently watch what the vets are doing? Or separate my hours worked into animal exp and vet exp?

Hey Brittney! Hope you are doing well; I just had 2 questions for you that I hope you can answer. How many letters of recommendation did you have? And also, how many hours of experience in total did you have when applying?

@BrittneyKilgore

3 жыл бұрын

I did 3 LORs - 2 from a vet and 1 not from a vet. If it's the same as when I applied, you can submit up to 6 but VMCAS will only review 3. So for example, if they require 2 vet letters and you submit 4, they will randomly choose 2 so its best to submit 3 quality LORs from people you know you want them to read. Second, I had about 5,000+ hours of experience of small animal. SGU still required me to get 200 hours of large animal experience to keep my acceptance, so I would recommend trying to get a mixed experience if possible (large and small, food animal, lab, research) even if its just animal experience like volunteering on a farm or at zoo. But also don't get intimidated by that number. I know people who had only a few hundred hours too.

Did you take any chemistry classes in vet school not including undergraduate school?There’s some science bachelors degrees that I’m looking into that don’t require chemistry but will I need to know like all those complex things in vet school? I wanna get out of it because I struggle a lot with chemistry. I’m interested in chemistry but it’s hard if that makes sense.

No, you don't take it in vet school, but every vet school in the US (including Ross and SGU) require 8 hours of general chem and 8 hours of organic chem as a prereq. SOME schools, may only require 4 hours of each, but you'd have to look, but I know that's a general prereq just like biology, physics, etc

I'm still in my undergrad, and school hasn't been an easy journey for me, so I'm starting to think that being a doctor isn't for me anymore. I still love working with animals and I still want to work in the field, but school aspect of it is exhausting!

Hey! Yes, volunteering helps applying to college and vet school. When applying for vet school, there is a section for hours of animal exprience and hours for vet experience which means directly under the supervision of a veterinarian. Both help! (are you a college sophmore or high school sophomore)? In regards to choosing what kind of vet, getting the most experience possible is my suggestion. You have so much time to figure it out. Many people change in vet school after getting experience or taking certain courses. You could also do mix practice which is a vet which kind of does a mix of small and large animal. Honestly, the choices are endless

I never considered vet school, I was never the kid that dreamed of being a vet. I started off wanting to do animal rescue rehab. I learned that you need a biology degree to do so, so I changed my major to Biology and doubling in animal studies.

I have no experience.
