I was talking to one of my teachers about this, and he said that if i was unsure about going this year and it came to the time i should be going, i could ring up and say that due to an illness in the family i was unable to go, and needed deferred entry for next year. Apparently if you have circumstances like that they have to do it, and cant look too closely as to why...
However I still seriously doubt whether I want to do Vet Med or not, and think that i will probably decline the offer around exam result time. I just dont think the jobs right for me, maybe i liked the idea of being a vet more than the reality. Alot of vets I spoken to say its a good job, but day to day stuff gets boring, also alot of the tasks arent the most pleasant and i just dont think its worth such a huge chunk of my life and money. I never thought id get a place, maybe its one of those competitive things, trying to get a place? Either way i think ill be taking a gap year next year, and reapplying for a different subject.
