Veterinary medicine is unique in that it is important to volunteer, get experience with animals, and work around veterinarians as early as you can. Animal experience is essential for any future veterinarian. There is no better way to understand animals then be around them and care for them. What do they eat? How do they communicate? How do they act when they are sick? Working around different types of animals is so valuable when you are early in your veterinary journey.
The best way to know where to startyour journey to become a veterinarianis to understand where you are. We created the Become a Vet Quiz to evaluate exactly where you are and to give you specific advice that fits with your background and needs!
The Become a Veterinarian Quiz was designed to give ideas and suggestions just for YOU. Just take this quiz and share with us what you’ve done so far to explore your dream of becoming a veterinarian and we will do the rest. Once you’ve answered all the questions, we’ll show you ideas and suggestions that were created just for you based on what you share.
There is another important very important reason for getting out there and getting experience right now- Veterinary colleges require it. Lots of it. Veterinary colleges recommend and/or require you to have from 40 – 400 hours of animal and veterinary experience when you apply. But that’s not the reality of the situation. To be successful applications have many more hours than that.
For example. while the University of California Davis officially requires 180 hours of experience, those applicants who were recently admitted to veterinary school had over 1,600 hours of experience. This is why Vet Set Go recommends both you start getting animal experience NOW. It will help you and it will make your future veterinary application very strong.
