Hello, I have been haunting these boards a lot lately and I figured now would be a good time to hop on board and see where I stand. I already have my application pretty much completed, however I want to know if I have wasted the time...and inadvertently the money by applying.
21 year old, Biology major, female attending a smaller catholic college. (Honestly no one has really tried to get into vet school, most biology students opt for Med school.)
Cum GPA: 3.65, (3.54 according to VMCAS)
Science GPA: 3.35
Last 45 GPA: 3.65
GRE: 151 V 152 Q 4.5 A ( I know this is extremely average, but it was the best of 3. I can't do the timed test thing very well)
Veterinary Experience
- 750 hours with 2 SA vets
- 300 hours with a LA vet (mostly cows and goats)
- 25 hours with a wildlife vet
-12 hours with an equine vet
Animal Experience
- Owned pets my entire life, but only claimed 100 hours
- 1000 hours working with rehabilitating wild animals
Research
-None
Awards/ Honors
Dean's list
numerous scholarships
tutored for a number of subjects
officer and VP of a few clubs
Letters of Recommendation
- DVM of a mixed practice
- DVM of SA
- Orgo professor
- Head of biology department at my college
- Boss from a local store that I worked at
So I really just want some opinions on whether I am too average to really have a good shot... it's already done, but now I am having some self doubt . My biggest worry is my lousy GRE score
The school's I went for are the following: Ohio, Mizzou, Mississippi, Tufts, Iowa, and Kansas
