Answer 1

You need to get busy now, to try and get this conviction adjudicated, or deleted from your record. You are right, a felony conviction keeps you out of med school, and perhaps lots of other professional endeavors.

You don't say what else you may have on your record, but a good criminal attorney, and good behavior in the interim (not to mention good grades) may convince a judge that you would be a good candidate for adjudication.

Answer 2

You can't possibly think that, EVERY doctor or vet out there is felony or criminal record free????

Of course not, that's only in story books, in the real world, people have past mishaps, and misfortunes that they learned, and either moved on, or they didn't and repeated same ones.

Its sounds like you've learned from yours, and you're ready to move on, so don't like this blemish stop you from joining the many doctors and vets, who have moved on.

Good Luck, ♥ and speak to courts to have your records sealed, or info suppressed after time served, volunteer, put in community time, at such places like the VET spot, and have Dr's write letter of recommendations about, build up a GOOD portfolio to counter to BAD one... you got much GOOD stuff awaiting.
Get to it!
Now is not the time to talk about it.... BE about it, that what the courts want to see.

Answer 3

if you served your time and finished all your probation, you should look into having it quashed on your records, it'll still be there but say that it was satisfied and all that jazz. If you really want to be a vet, make it happen, someone out there will recognize that you have changed and we were all young once.
