I'm from England and studying for my GCSEs. My dream is to become a vet. I'm taking three sciences and in May I will do 1 week work experience at a veterinary practice. I don't have any pets but I am a member of the Pony Club. Anyone got any tips or advice on how I can achieve my dream?

Another vet's have said that they will take me for a longer term work experience when I'm 16.

Sounds like you on the correct course. Here is the USA when a young person ask of this, I tell them to work with a Vet in summer or part time. I know a few vets that when a person show ability, motivation and interest, the vet help them go to school. They get real hands on experience too as they learning, under the supervision of the vet.

the widely used vet leaves college with $a hundred,000 in loans. some states will pay off your loans while you're keen to do foodstuff animal artwork for a definite form of years. that's by way of fact there at the instant are not sufficient foodstuff animal vets in rural factors the excellent option now. the widely used graduate in small animal starts off at $50,000+ looking on the place you practice. It takes 3-4 years of under graduate artwork previously you are able to practice to vet college. while you're fortunate to get in then that's yet another 4 years of faculty. the utility technique demands data of working or volunteering in a veterinary well being facility for a definite form of hours besides as references from people who artwork interior the sphere. that's actual those individuals that are in this occupation certainly love our jobs as we don't get rich from doing this. I won't even flow into how little veterinary technicians make and we are the nurses, lab techs, anesthetists, x-ray techs, dental techs of the animal international.

Focus on developing critical thinking skills and be observant. Being a vet is about learning the science, understanding it, and looking things over thoroughly.

My suggestion is to intern or work with a vet to see if that is actually what you want to do...if you do take as many science classes as you can...and then work more with vets.
