Hello all!
I have recently decided that I want to go to veterinary school in Costa Rica. I love the country and have a few friends that are veterinarians there that are wonderful vets! I was wondering if anyone has gone to this vet school before. I toured the vet school with one of my vet friends that went there and I loved it. I want the opinion of someone that is not Costa Rican that decided to go to vet school there. One of my friends thought that I may be the first American to attend but I am not sure if that is true or not, which is why I am reaching out. I would love to hear about experiences anyone has had going to vet school outside the US (even if it is not this one) to a school that was not accredited. How hard was it to test into this US? Did you feel like you were prepared for the test? How did you prepare? Any and all advice is welcome! I am applying to Costa Rica's national vet school now and am preparing for the entrance exam in September. I find out if I got in or not in December and classes start in February. I am in the process of learning spanish right now. Any advice on learning efficiently? I want to make sure I also learn a bunch of medical terms to help prepare me. Any and all advice is welcome!
