I am pretty new to the forum and don't know many of you, so I thought it would be fun to have a thread for those of us that are hopefuls for the class of 2016. It's never to early to get to know eachother .
I am also curious how far along everyone is in the planning process... sometimes I feel like I am ahead of the game and other times like I am way behind.
I have just 3 prerecs. left to take: Organic Chemistry 2, Biochemistry, and Microbiology. I am taking O. Chem 2 and Biochem. this semester and Micro. in the Fall. I might also take animal nutrition so I can apply to Michigan.
I have taken the GRE already and got a 1280 which I am very happy with . My GPA is 3.99, which I am of course happy with as well.
I have over 7000 animal experience hours between wildlife rehabilitation, working in a boarding kennel over winter break one year, and volunteering at a petting zoo with exotics for 2 summers.
My vet experience hours are lacking, I have 33 hours with a small animal vet clinic and 9 hours with a traveling vet. I am hoping that some of my wildlife rehabbing experience will count as vet experience, I have an email out to OSU asking about it (I tried calling but the number on the site isn't working ). I will obviously continue my shadowing no matter what because I need more small animal practice experience hours.
I have not started my personal statement yet . I plan to within the next week.
I am an Ohio resident and hope to attend Ohio State. I will be applying to at least one other school probably 2 and right now my others will likely be between Tennessee, Michigan, and Cornell.
So, everyone else applying this year for the class of 2016 let's here from you. Where are you applying and how far along are you in the process?
