At RVC we had optional turkey killing and plucking last week was so much fun

How can killing turkeys be fun??? Not sure they think the same as you.......

Good luck today everyone, hope it is going/has gone well

Rvc interview went well! No idea if I actually did decently in it, but it was actually quite fun, the interviewers and student ambassadors were all really friendly

Little bit embarrassed that they had me as a "miss" on my nametag though XD

[BlodynTatws]

Does anyone have an idea of how many people are interviewed at Livs each year?

[Conor.RVC2011]

Right this is a long shot but was anyone who had an interview today in that tour group that didn't know what flat in college grove they had to look round and the student ambassadors had to ask me as I was leaving and i offered my flat ... just wondering because it was probably best that you lot didn't look round my flat in the end cause ours was a right mess :P

This. I don't understand how a vet student studying to save animal's lives could enjoy killing or even plucking dead ones?

Hm?

EDIT: Ah, I thought your name was familiar! (We?) Rare occasion, is the free food. You wait a year, it'll be your turn soon enough.

Me and the other vet apps in our year that look on here

Work Experience was AMAZING today! We had an ex lap on a dog which unfortunately had a tumour on his liver and the owner decided to euthanise it (even though the vet thought we could save it)...but...

Something good came out of it! The vet literally just said "So, fancy some stitching?" and I got to stitch the dog up as it had a fairly large incision on it's abdomen. I got to stitch the whole thing, both the muscle layer and skin layer, unsupervised after a quick lesson so fun!

Hello, I'm a oversea university student, majored in Biology. I received an e-mail from Edinburgh today, it hasn't confirmed my offer but wrote "congratulations" at the end of the letter, does it means that I will receive an offer soon?

I worked on a small holding this summer and got to watch the pigs being slaughtered and then got to butcher them, I thought it was a fantastic experience. It's never nice seeing an animal killed, whether at an abattoir or by a vet, but that was their intended purpose and they were killed humanely.

it was the most horrific thing i have ever done. as i expected, i had a major mind blank and spent the whole of the 40 odd minutes of the mmi staring blankly at the interviewers and spouting utter rubbish.

i am so disappointed with myself, i love rvc so much and i spent so much time revising and practising with teachers to build up my confidence and i still managed to mess it up. i think i might just withdraw, i don't think i could bear a rejection

Don't worry! My Bristol Interview went horrendously too..
