hi!
i need some advice and i hope people out there can help me out - i appreciate it!
so, i've applied to vet school for this cycle [2006], and got rejected..
it's mostly because i had minimal animal experience... and working as a kennel/vet assist for over 6 months now, i realize that i really don't know much about clinical stuff [good thing that the schools rejected me!].. i feel as though i've been missing what's important about being a good veterinarian -
and i feel as though the vet i work for doesn't really think highly of me.. i don't know, but i just get a negative vibe...but sometimes, it's okay - like the dr. doesn't seem to not be in such a neg. mood.. but the dr.'s also good at hiding true feelings..
i've noticed, because of the way other people in the hospital treat me - it's a reflection of how the dr. thinks of that particular person, and that's the way the hosp. staff treats you...
if i haven't lost you guys with this far-about way of describing my situation... i don't know..so anyhow here are my questions:
1) should i just get my LOR and run with it?
2) for people who got accepted this cycle how much clinical stuff do you know?
3) what are some of the qualities you think are important as a vet?
i think i know the answers to these questions, but i just want to hear what other people think!
please advice - i really appreciate it!
thank you!
