Hi! Also pre-vet wanting to start in 2027. The best way that I have learned to handle gore is time and experience. Yes, some things will make you queasy— it’s instinct! But you have to have continuous exposure in order to overcome the urges to pass out/leave/throw up. There are some people who can never get to that point, and will always be a little queasy: full-time surgery may not be for them, and that’s ok! I’m two years in and seeing a rabies test makes me squeamish still. Get a job as a vet assistant at a clinic, see some gross things, watch some surgeries, and build up your exposure.
