Sounds a bit crazy, right?
Well, I've been considering recently applying to the UK (AVMA accredited) vet schools this summer, after I've finished my first year of college. I want to study abroad junior year regardless, and this just helps to jumpstart my career. I love their EVMS program, and UK students will be this young, so I won't feel out of place age-wise.
I have tons of equine experience, a decent amount of small animal, and probably ~250 hours of vet experience by this fall (I have around 60 now, but I'm in the midst of shadowing and I'll do more this summer). I had a 4.0 GPA first semester, and I expect to do equally as well this semester. I'm also planning on taking Organic Chemistry this summer (if that goes poorly, I'll probably scrap the plan and wait another year).
Any experience or thoughts?
