Hi all! I am looking for some advice, especially from students who have gotten into vet school with lower GPAs. I did have an interview earlier this year, but was put on the wait list. The advice from the admissions person wasn't super clear and I would like some advice from people who are in my boat.
Cum. GPA: 3.22
Science: 2.99
I am in my senior year right now and have A's in all my classes, except physics where I might be around a C+ currently. I don't really have a great excuse for my low GPA besides that I was working multiple jobs and was in a struggling relationship with someone. My dilemma right now is if I should delay my graduation and take a few more upper level courses in the fall and then graduate, or if i should apply for internships for the fall. I am definitely retaking my GRE this summer so if I do super well on that, perhaps it will outweigh my grades.
I have a ton of small animal experience and research, so I am only missing large animal. This is probably one of the last years I could do an unpaid internship since I am entering real-world mode and my parents won't support me for very much longer, but perhaps I should finish up my schoolwork strong and try and raise my GPA a little bit.
Sorry for the long post! As you can tell, I have been stressing about this a lot the past few days and have a lot going on in my mind so any help would be appreciated!
