I agree on the quality aspect a lot could be those with little experience etc
It's the same story every year don't worry!And Colorado state had 500 more applicants than any other year also
Or they are like me and had a Verbal GRE in the 75-78th percentile and a quant in the 20-40thThe number of applicants has been consistently increasing for the last few years, that is old news. But keep in mind it’s not pulling names out of a hat. Not all applicants are equal. Those who are truely competitive will remain competitive even with a couple hundred extra people who applied because they didn’t want to take the GRE.
I feel that with the dramatic difference between my verbal and quant scores. I’m just not very math minded... and I do much worse in a long, timed exam like the GRE when I can’t take the time to solve the problems.Or they are like me and had a Verbal GRE in the 75-78th percentile and a quant in the 20-40th
I was the opposite! I did better on my quant and struggled with my verbal lol.I just try not to think about the odds, because if I do it makes me worry too much.

I've always been very good at reading and writing, I just don't test well in math under pressure.I was the opposite! I did better on my quant and struggled with my verbal lol.
I think most people tend to be better at one or the other. My verbal score was 10 points higher than my quant.I was the opposite! I did better on my quant and struggled with my verbal lol.
My verbal was a 157 my math was 148 so I feel that. That was with accommodations for my add and studying my bum off. My first try my quant was 142 so 6 points higher paid off to get into my MSI think most people tend to be better at one or the other. My verbal score was 10 points higher than my quant.
What you could get accommodations for add? Wish I would have known that! Would’ve gotten my psychiatrist to write me a letter thenMy verbal was a 157 my math was 148 so I feel that.

The thread is called uw-Madison! Someone on the thread said they contacted the school and said that the supplemental should come late NovemberHey! I couldn't find a thread for Wisconsin 2023 applicants, but I remember them saying they would send out a supplemental application some point this fall. Was just wondering if anyone's received that. I had someone reach out to me to confirm one of my prerequiste courses satisfied their requirements, but other than that I haven't heard anything.
You can get accommodations for learning disabilities on like every standardized exam....What you could get accommodations for add? Wish I would have known that! Would’ve gotten my psychiatrist to write me a letter then

Act, gre, pretty sure navle....
If you’ve ever gotten accommodations for anything in the past, ALWAYS check if you can get them!!

I tried and they gave me such a hard time. I sent in all the forms and paperwork listed to fill out and had my psychiatrist write the required letter but they never told me what else I needed to send in. Very difficult to work with!!
I had the same..in my explanation statement for vmcas I told schools that my ADD doesnt effect clincals or rreal world work as ive worked with my mentor without meds ( she wanted to kill Me by the end of the 15hr day) and did fine. I also worked a rescue off meds fine..its tests and study ( non stimulating work) that gets me.My accommodations for ADD were extra time (0.5x) and extra breaks. I didn't have a hard time setting them up at all, Kes, so I'm wondering what was up with that. My paperwork was pretty detailed so maybe that's the difference. My accommodations increased my scores pretty dramatically, I definitely do not regret getting them put in place.

Just wait until you’re in vet school and you dream about atrial fibrillation the night before your cardiac physiology exam. It never ends.So I had a waking dream last night of rejection emails...I totally didn't check my real email in a panic to make sure it was a nightmare. When the stress of the cycle leaches into your dreams..O.O
Ive had those school in dream moments lol they helped actually.I wasn't as nervous for the test because I already took it in my head.Just wait until you’re in vet school and you dream about atrial fibrillation the night before your cardiac physiology exam. It never ends.

Thats what most of my vet experience is with. My mentor did regular and sport horse..a lot of rehab and ultrasound, joint treatments etc.I want to do sporthorse medicine/rehab equine. It’s one of the main reasons I’m super excited about University of Tennessee since they have rehab programs
Yep! I spent this past summer with a sport horse vet and loved itThats what most of my vet experience is with. My mentor did regular and sport horse..a lot of rehab and ultrasound, joint treatments etc.
I had my cardio final yesterday. Saturday night I dreamed that I woke up Monday morning, having not studied for the exam at all. And for several minutes on Sunday after I woke up I was convinced it was actually MondayJust wait until you’re in vet school and you dream about atrial fibrillation the night before your cardiac physiology exam.

...interview or interrogation?Interview nightmares havent popped up for a few weeks, but they are super stressful. My last one I was walked into a dark room with a spotlight on this dingy metal chair, and there was like a dozen interviewers in dark hooded cloaks on a raised semi circle platform. Complete silence for minutes after I sat down. I cleared my throat to introduce myself then one said, "Not worth it" and the floor under my chair dropped. I woke up in a panic. Here's hoping my interview is slightly less ominous.
Is there a difference?...interview or interrogation?
I mean, both are to get information out of you so I guess one is just more polite?Is there a difference?

So happy to see folks into food animals. I got intrested due to vets not knowing about goats around me or sheep. They would have to call in colleagues from 2hrs away. I want to work with food animal and equine but camelids( Llamas and Alpacas) and small ruminants are my jam.Me! I want to end up doing food animal!
