I know that you stated that you got C's in 3 pre-req classes due to anxiety issues. Have you since made accommodations and progress to help work through the issue? Vet schools will be interested in how you handled that. Your cumGPA is right at the average so I would say competitive. Your science GPA is on the low side. I would try to get the highest score possible in your remaining science classes. You may also want to consider retaking some classes that you got C's in while you are still in school to bump that science GPA. Financially, it would be a good move too as compared to waiting until after you graduate. You will want to do as well as possible on the GRE. There are lots of study tools and classes you can take to help you prepare. Definitely use the resources.
How many animal experience hours do you have? You definitely need more QUALITY veterinary hours for your application. Most vet schools have a requirement of 400-500 hours minimum. However, a lot of students who apply have 1000 or more. The greater amount of experience will also help to offset the science GPA on your application. That being said, quality hours are better than quantity. Also, you will want to become the ambassador on seek another leadership role since vet schools look highly at that (at least OSU did with me).
Rock the GRE and the rest of your classes and get your experience up and you should be sitting pretty good.
