Hello all. I am starting vet school this January. I hate to make assumptions, but I gather that the lowest grade to pass any course would be a C - correct?
Another question. I am wondering how important completing brief summer internships are (like with Banfield) while in school. Is this recommended to future employment? Thanks!

Lowest grade to pass depends on school policy (each one is different).

what you “should” do over the summers is arguable but depends on what your goals are after graduation.

If your goal is to work for banfield and get the most perks out of it, then yes that maybe a good idea.

The grades are highly school dependent. My school allows you to pass each quarter with a 60% or greater, but you have to pass the year with a 70%.
