Hello all,
I am applying this summer for veterinary school and am panicking as I am really doubting myself. I wanted to gain some insight whether I am competitive/ if I have a chance of making it this season. I know it all depends on who else applies with me, and a clear yes/no can't be given, but I could really use some advice as to if applying now is a waste of time. I have my undergrad in gen bio, i have a 3.7 general gpa, 3.6 science gpa. 3.7 last 45 credit gpa. I will have 800 - 900 veterinary experience hours by the time I apply, and have around 400 animal experience(dog sitting/ working with rabbits). I am applying to UC davis, Western University, colorado state, washington state, oregon state, university of ten, knoxville, lincoln memorial, and uni of illinois. I know some of these are very competitive and I may not have a shot at being accepted, but I am very interested in their program. Based on my gpa and experience, am I competitive applicant or should I take a 2nd gap year as I am already taking one currently as I just graduated this past may? I am a california resident as well.
