Hey! So I'm feeling a little down right now because I applied for SGU vet and didn't get accepted… not even an interview.
B.S in Biology
GPA 3.15 (both science and overall)
Very little experience- some farm hand experience
GRE- average
I'm so down but I've been browsing around on here and some people have mentioned that Australian vet programs are easy to get into? WHAT schools are they speaking of?
And I've been thinking about just settling for a vet tech program since it will definitely get me the experience and recommendations I need. But am I being silly for going back to the drawing board?
I've also read some people are doing Masters in biology, etc. and that has improved their chances.
Basically my question is
What do you guys think would be the best path to go down to get into a Veterinary Medicine program?
1. Retaking courses improve the GPA, get internships and shadow more vets.
2. Go into a Masters program and get awesome grades.
3. Go into Vet tech, work for a few years and then apply for Vet school
4. Any other international schools that seem like they'd for sure take me in?
Thanks guys!! Any helpful advice is appreciated.. not going through the best times right now :/
