Here's an update post-VT trip on the feedback acquired and what the road ahead looks like. The trip to meet with the VT Vet school admissions counselor was a success! I learned exactly was I need to do to be a competitive candidate. The summary of these tasks include: (re)taking classes, getting straight A's in these classes, doing volunteer work with a vet, getting animal experience and doing biomedical research. Eh! No Biggie, right! All of this before I even submit an application. :)
So I have gotten started!! No time to waste. I am enrolled in classes this Fall and am going to volunteer at the Virginia Aquarium as well as EVMS (for now). As the admissions counselor said, it's an achievable goal, but only I can do to hard work to get there - so I am starting to check off the list.
I have also beginning to look into other certifications that I may be able to acquire, since I am looking to get into such a specialized field. I have come across a few interesting projects, and am hopeful to find more. Quite a exciting road ahead!
