Hi there! Second time applicant here. I recently did a few file reviews after receiving multiple rejections and I’ve honestly never felt so defeated. The common theme was the same all around: my grades from 5+ years ago bring my cGPA down significantly. Currently.. my last 45 is around 3.8, maybe higher after graduation. Science is around 3.4. Neither seemed to matter with the retakes and poor attempts from so long ago. Unfortunately.
I have over 5,000 small animal experience hours between the ICU, ER and GP. Research experience. Years of volunteering. Aside from my own horses and classes I’ve taken, very limited large animal experience.
I graduate in May and plan to reapply this upcoming cycle.
I obviously can’t do anything about my grades from years ago so I feel like this is impossible. Does anyone have anyyyyy advice on things I can do to be a better applicant? Volunteer? Internships?
