Hi! I have double sided nose piercings and took mine out for my picture. I don’t think it would be an issue if it is a small stud, but I did it just to be safe because I had a hoop in one side.Hi people! Quick question- I’m submitting my interview invite acceptance today and snapped a headshot, but I have a small nose ring in.. is it bad to leave it in you think? I put a clear stud in for interviews last year but it’s a pain to take out and I wasn’t sure what y’all’s thoughts were. I can attach the picture if you need a reference

Is kansas the only school you are trying to apply too? I'm pretty sure a lot of vet schools do require you to have two semesters of organic chemistry! I'd still take it just incase you decided to apply elsewhere?So KSU doesn't require Organic Chemistry 2, however my undergrad degree does - so I'm thinking about switching degrees just so I don't have to take a class I don't need to take. Has anyone else not taken Organic 2?
Next semester I also have Physics 2, Biochemistry, and Genetics to finish out my pre-reqs. They're hard enough classes so if I don't need to take Org 2, it might be better because less work and stress.
I'm honestly just want reassurance that I don't need to take it and I'll be fine. lol
Kansas is the only college because it's instate and I love the school. I didn't apply anywhere else.Is kansas the only school you are trying to apply too?

I personally would take Ochem 2 because it helped me with Biochem 1 and 2 along with the labs I elected to take for my chemistry minor. It may not be as useful to you since you will have to take biochem along side it? Maybe see if you could take it over the summer or talk to an advisor to see if biochem 2 can be a replacement for Ochem 2, i know my school was pretty lenient/ understanding on stuff like that.So KSU doesn't require Organic Chemistry 2, however my undergrad degree does - so I'm thinking about switching degrees just so I don't have to take a class I don't need to take.

I did get an email from KSU after I completed the survey letting me know that they got my confirmation.Guys,
Did you receive any confirmation email after the survey? Also, the last question stated if you needed any accommodation right?

I got it a few days later. It was not automated.I just did it, but I am freaking out I did not get a confirmation

Hope this helps!
Thank you for sharing.
It opened all the questions and asked to submit a photo of myself, I therefore understand that I said yes to the interview, but a friend of mine said to me that she had to explicitly say yes to the interview and now I am kinda freaking out that I did not see any question with that question
I used a random pic in my high school graduation dress because I didn’t have a headshot. It’s probably just to confirm your identity. I wouldn’t overthink it! Also just wanted to say that I’m rooting for you! I saw you on here last cycle too (a fellow Ohio resident) and have been hoping for the best!What did everyone’s headshot look like? I’m wearing a biz casual nice sweater, nice simple makeup in mine but my sister who is in a business school said it wasn’t good 😅. Just looking for feedback! Thanks!
we LOVE Ohio (even though my boyfriend is a Michigan alumnus oops!!) thanks for your help and I am rooting for you too!!!I used a random pic in my high school graduation dress because I didn’t have a headshot.

I used a passport-style photo because that’s what several other schools have requested, so I’ve just been using the same one over and over. Plain white background, head-on, from the shoulders up. It’s more plain than, say, my Linked In photo, but I figured it’s safer. I think this is just used to confirm your identity.What did everyone’s headshot look like?

Not to look on the downside (just cause this has happened to me) but what if you don’t get in this year? Would you take Ochem 2 anyways? Would you want to? would it be more helpful to your degree/ other classes (I know Ochem 2 helps with other bio classes such as cell bio, molecular genetics, physiology etc)? I feel like talking to a pre-vet advisor/ degree advisor might be helpful because I’m sure they’ve had other students in this same boat!
Just to give the other side I never took Ochem 2 and have had no problem at KSU because of it and have not missed not having it. I finished my pre-requisites in 3 years and was able to take Immunology instead which I found much more helpful so far!
No, the other degree is just an A.S. in Liberal Arts and Sciences. So I would meet all the requirements for that degree, but will still take the remaining courses needed for KSU. This helps a lot and I think I'll switch degree to avoid Ochem 2. I like Ochem 1 and the teacher so it probably wouldn't have been too bad, but with Physics 2, Biochem, and Genetics on top of it - yikes!Since KSU only requires gen ochem or ochem 1, I took gen ochem and that was it. I still did well in biochem and have not felt that I missed out because I did not take ochem 2. Obviously I am not in vet school yet, but I do not think it will be detrimental to you since ochem 2 is not a pre-requisite for KSUCVM. I think it matters more how badly you want to/ if you want to switch your undergrad major just because of 1 class. I know ochem 2 is a tough class, but would switching majors require you to take any other classes that you do not want to take? For example, my biology major requires cell biology, and I almost switched majors to avoid that class, but decided in the end to just suck it up and take cell bio because there were other classes I did not want to take in the other majors I was considering switching into.
Did anyone do the zoom practice today? If so what was it like?

I went this morning. I logged in and they just made sure my camera and mic was working and asked if I had any questions. They were very nice and mentioned that the interview would be open file.I was just going to ask this. I had to work today and tomorrow at the time of the practice. I don’t know if I should email them to see if there is going to be any other date available
I’m in the same boat :/ i thought about maybe bringing my computer to work just to at least test my microphone and camera, but unfortunately won’t be able to test my WiFiI was just going to ask this.

it was individual. Like they invited me into the room as soon as the other person left. I maybe waited 30-45 seconds before being let in.Was it in group or individual?

I wasn't expecting to ask any questions so all I asked was if she could tell me about the interview at all and she said they would have my file.Ohh ok, thank you.
Last questions
Did you ask a lot of things?
How much time did it last?
