RVC Veterinary Gateway

Hi,

Was wondering how many people on here have applied to the Gateway course at RVC. Has anyone heard back yet, either rejections/ interviews/ offers?

What grades/ work experience do people have?

GCSES: 5A's 6B's 1C 1D
AS: Biology C Resit Chem and Physics
Predicted: B Biology, C Chemistry, D Physics and A AS Geography

Work Exp:
4 week SA Vet
1 week stables
2 years RSPCA
3 years Cats Protection
1 morning farm
work with large animals (goats,sheep, pigs, chickens, horses)
work outdoor/nature with young children

booked : 1 week lab and 2week zoo

I've applied too, it's my only option left ha!

such a good opportunity, but the competition is a bit ridiculous :|
heard anything about interviews yet buddy?

because my teacher wouldn't predict me an A; i didn't meet the AAB and higher criteria so i was told there's no point :/
i've got offers for biovet and hoping to transfer or reapply or post grad, SOO MUCH EFFORT, but it's our dream career right?
and nice plan batman! hope everything turns out alright for you dude x

If you can I would def suggest taking a gap year/resitting and applying to vet med as an undergraduate. You cannot transfer from any course into vet med (all unis have a very strict policy on this) and getting in as a grad is difficult as there is a lot of competition and with the exception of RVC and Notts, graduate courses are upwards of 18k a year, which must be paid upfront and there is NO government help, so its a VERY expensive option.

One more year of you life is nothing compared to the years as a vet if you get in. I know your desperate to jump straight in but trust me when I say its worth taking your time and getting it right the first time around

Yeah I know, it's like my only chance now so I'm constantly checking my emails for some sort of news. Even if it's a rejection, I'd rather know now because the wait is such a killer!

No news yet, how about you?
