I am currently in my first semester of college majoring in Veterinary Technology. Before I graduated high school in May, I was very unsure of whether I wanted to be a veterinarian or veterinary technician. Just to be safe, I went the vet tech route. Not even a full semester in, I have realized that I want to make more of myself and become a veterinarian. I talked to two advisors over my school's vet tech program about a possible transfer or change of major, and they recommended that I complete a 2+2 program that they have with Clemson University. They told me that I would stay on this track and get my vet tech degree, and then finish vet school prerequisites at Clemson for the next two years. They claimed that the vet tech classes would transfer to Clemson. They recommended this because they said it would give me more experience and look better on the vet school applications. They said that a student did this and got accepted into vet school, while another left to go to a university before completing the program and did not get accepted. One of the advisors is a veterinarian and said that she was jealous of the people in her classes who were already vet techs because they had more experience. I'm not sure if they're just trying to push their program on me or what. What is the best route for me to go?
