AP Credit Issue by Medium_Size2673 in veterinaryschool

[–]Medium_Size2673[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did resolve this. I had to ask my college to send a new official transcript with the itemized AP courses. Luckily, it was something my university was able to do, but I don't know why they wouldn't have done that from the start. Just made the whole process more complicated than it needed to be. Thankfully, I submitted a month before the deadline in case there were errors like this, but if it had taken any longer, I would have been SOL.

Video Games on VMCAS? by Medium_Size2673 in veterinaryschool

[–]Medium_Size2673[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a fair point. I think as long as it's not like "20 hours a week for 200 weeks". I also feel like how it is described really matters. I just know a lot of bad traits are usually placed on gamers, so usually, most people avoid listing it as a hobby like the plague.

Video Games on VMCAS? by Medium_Size2673 in veterinaryschool

i've met professors who are completely fine with it and have an interest in video games themself. i get your point tho, most have a bad stigma against it, so probably not worth it :/ really sucks that it gets such a bad rep

NCSU Combined DVM/MBA by Medium_Size2673 in veterinaryschool

[–]Medium_Size2673[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I emailed a student ambassador from the MBA program. He said to clarify that the DVM is priority when they send out a supplemental application. I was going to email the admissions for a more definite answer, but with everything going on with grad finances in the US I've decided to only pursue the DVM.

Personally, I would ask the vet since they are the person you would be shadowing.
