Hey all!
I was just wondering if any of you have been to previous symposiums and could tell me how you found the experience. I would really like to go, but the cost of registering, flying, and staying is really steep for me and I don't want to ask the rents to fund the trip. Did you all think it was worth the expense? I've been told by someone else who is going that the majority of good lectures/labs are already full, so I'm not quite sure what to do.
If you've been, did you learn any valuable information that could not have been obtained otherwise? Is it something that you can put on your application, or do veterinary schools give any weight to attending?
I'm just wondering if I can justify the expense...if it weren't for the money I'd be there hands down!! Such is life hehe!
Any information you all can give me is greatly appreciated!!!
