Hi, I've recently quit my first job out of college (administrative assistant which was a bad fit for me) and throughout the past year of working in an extremely boring job, I have been seriously considering going to vet school after doing some job shadowing.
My academic background:
A2: A* in Maths, Biology, Psychology
AS: A in Business Studies (which I know is useless LOL
Bachelor's degree in Psychology (GPA: 3.66 out of 4), 2:1 honors
I have quite a lot of research experiences in Psych and also did some presentations in international conferences and I will be able get some good reference from my professors without problem.
My animal experiences:
Only with my pet hamsters and cockatiels...
*I wasn't allowed to keep cats or dogs and there is no zoo here in my country (I live in Hong Kong) so there are only very few opportunities at a handful of animal shelters or farms; but I will try to volunteer at these places now I don't have to work.
I'd be more then grateful if any of you could give me some advice on what I can do to strengthen my CV (which is very weak at the moment I know). I don't think its likely I will get into any vet school without a chemistry a-level so I will try to study it on my own and take it this year.
Do you think getting animal experience and a good chemistry a-level would be enough for me to apply to vet school? Thanks!!
