Hello I'm new here. I need help. I don't know what career I should do; dentist or veterinarian. I'm in college and planning on becoming a dental hygienist which will help me get into dental school. I just am unsure if I should go to dental school or to veterinarian school. Becoming a dentist interests me then again I love animals, and want to help them out. Also is it possible for me to get a degree into dental hygienist and then apply to veterinarian school? or will I have to take classes all over again. I've checked and some pre-requisites for vet school are the same as the classes I'm taking now. Or once I get my dental hygiene degree I can't use those credits again?
