Hello all, I was hoping for some advice. I’m applying for my first cycle this year for veterinary schools and have been struggling with my “experiences” section. I’ve always wanted to be a vet, but in high school I was very into music performance and was in every ensemble group you can imagine. I have tons of awards from music competitions and continued into college, minoring in music performance. I have been putting down all of my music awards and extracurricular groups and whatnot, but I’m worried it may drown out the rest of my application.
I have plenty of vet hours and have had many different animal experiences, but I guess I’m just worried that admissions will look at my application and ask why I didn’t go into music instead. I’ve had some people say that med/vet/dental schools like to see students that did music, but I’m wondering if anyone has specifically had success getting into vet school with also a lot of music experience?
I may be very much overthinking it, but my science GPA is less than ideal whereas I’ve gotten an A in every music class I’ve taken. I am passionate about music, but have never wanted it to be my career. I’ve always wanted to be a veterinarian and I’m determined to do so. I just don’t want admissions to get the wrong idea. Any input is much appreciated!
