hi everyone,
i haven't seen much debate on this topic recently, and i would be very interested to see what people think.
does anyone wonder what it would have been like had they gone to another school for their undergrad in terms of applying to vet school?
i say this because i went to the most prestigious school that i got accepted to out of high school. i loved my undergrad experience: it was everything i hoped for, and i was extremely challenged. however, in going to a prestigious school, i wonder if my gpa is unfairly low compared to other applicants.
i say this because i am currently taking org 2 at my state school (i never took it in undergrad) and find it to be so much EASIER. yes, it is org, so it is difficult, but it is by no means the challenge that my classes were at my undergrad college. it is night and day.
so all i hear on these boards are discussions of gpa, and all i think is that comparing gpa's between schools is a bit like comparing apples and oranges.
do vet schools see this?
and before the accusations fly, i am not trying to offend anyone at any type of school. i am relaying my own experience.
thanks.
