Hi I am from California and a rising senior planning to apply to vet school for the first time.
GPA: at community college 3.7, currently GPA at uni:3.35
Hours: around 700 hours at the vet clinic and emergency clinic for pets (paid)
74 hours volunteering at the humane society and nonprofit cat spay and neuter clinic
Degree: bachelors in biology
Clubs: I am part of the pre-vet student association at school and was part of the medical scholars club.
My main concerns are that my GPA isn't the highest and only have experience with pets. I want to apply, but I don't know which schools I have a chance is. I also had a super hard time when I got into uni, so I will include that in my essays. I have made improvements since my first and second quarters. My LORs are from two vets from the same clinic and one from a prof at my community college.
Any advice will help and good luck to everyone else who is applying!
