If vet school is your goal, then a tech program won't get you there. You would have to go to a CC or university to get your pre-reqs, so why spend time/money doing something that won't advance your career goals? BUT if you want to be a tech, then yeah, go that route. You can search around the forum a bit and read pervious threads with advice about choosing or not choosing a career as a vet tech, and about the paths people took to becoming a veterinarian.
