Hello everyone,
I am a BS. in Biology Sophomore, and I live in NJ. I wanted to know any suggestions /advises from my fellow pre-vet students. I want to concentrate in wildlife/exotic but here is very rare to find a wide range of experience. This is why I was considering doing a semester abroad in Thailand with the program loopabroad.com has for pre-vet students. What they offer is very tempting! Let me know what you guys think of it.
This is my experience so far, let me know if I am on the right track!
-I recently came back from a 2-week volunteer trip in Costa Rica, I was working with sea turtles. I realized how much I would love to work in a conservation as a DVM.
-I also currently work at a small animal/exotics clinic (when I feel I have enough experience there I might just go and do the Thailand program abroad.)
-I have been going to a therapeutic horseback riding facility with disable kids and seniors. I really love to volunteer here! I am planning to keep going as much as I can.
I am not sure if I should try and go again abroad to volunteer with sea turtles in the future. It was such a great experience, and I feel I could have stayed longer. How would that look in my vet app? would it be weird?
Thanks so much!
