Okay so like most of everyone else here, I've wanted to be a vet since I knew what a vet was. BUT here are my stats:
B.S. (coming soon!) animal science/pre-vet from Rutgers
With honors (not GPA based)
Undergrad GPA 2.994
GRE - still to come
Work
500 hours in a one doctor practice
1500 hours in a ten doctor practice
Currently working at an emergency/referral practice
Other things
Honors thesis evaluating the medicinal use of a botanical therapeutic on lab mice
Extensive work with lab animals
75 hours equine research
70 hours goat research
Certification in dairy AI
Shadowed a dairy cow vet in Costa Rica for 2.5 weeks
TA for animal nutrition lab for two semesters
TA for anatomy one semester
My GPA is pretty much crap because I have straight Cs through EVERY chemistry course I've ever taken, plus Cs in any math based course as well (Calc, Stats, part of Physics).
Does anyone know of anyone who got into vet school with a bad GPA that didn't have to get their masters first? I'm GOING to vet school one way or another, and I'd rather find a way to do it without having to be an extra $60-80k in debt since grad school certainly isn't free!
