this was a spooky video to get recommended right after accepting my place at vet school lmao
Hahaha this is hilarious! I hope you can see that most of my videos talk about how amazing it is!! Goodluck ❤
Thats cool though that you got accepted. Which vet school were you admitted to?
I graduated from veterinary medical school in 1976, University of Pennsylvania. I am retired now. Looking back at the extraordinary effort it took to become a veterinarian; I wouldn't of done it. I practiced for 11 years in a rural area. I hated it. I was not in a good place mentally in practice. I took a job as a Veterinary Medical Officer, USDA, supervising meat inspection. I did the job 29 years. I think it saved my life, set hours, good pay, medical insurance, paid vacation, sick days, 401K, and a pension. The job was satisfying even though superficially it might not seem so. I felt like I was saving lives insuring wholesome food. My classmates generally were cliquish, jealous, ruthless overachievers. I only associated with a small group. When you get into the clinics; you need to prepare as best as possible for your cases. If you get exposed as unprepared during rounds; the professors will focus on you and subject you to more intensive interrogation in subsequent rounds. The story didn't have a completely happy ending. A forklift knocked me off a ladder in the plant. My left femur was shattered, comminuted fracture, at my left hip joint. It made me a cripple. I kept working until 65.
Wow, thanks so much for the interesting story!
Thank you for sharing this.
This video came up right on time. I’m still trying to figure out what path I want to pick. I know being a vet isn’t always pretty, but it’s something I’ve always had a passion for. I’m honestly considering zoology too, but I don’t know :(
I know, it really is such a hard decision to make. I think that you should do whatever will make you happiest :)
This reasonated so much! From a fellow vet student (I'm in my 4th yr too. In Australia) to another, thank you! I needed to hear this! Best of luck to with your studies and future career as a Dogtor!! ❤👏🍀📚
Oh wow! Thank you so much for watching :) Goodluck with your studies too! So good to hear from you!
Thank you for this video! It’s so helpful hearing from another perspective! 🤍
Thank you so much for watching! I'm glad you found it helpful :)
Imposition syndrome and depression is very relatable
I'm glad!
I'm fresh out of high school and soon heading to college to get that basic aa. Becoming a vet is definitely something that I am considering for the future but at this point I'm very unsure. Your video gave some very important insights to the life of a vet/vet student that I will absolutely have to consider. Same goes for your how to become a vet video, very useful. All in all, I simply hope to be in your place in the future, thank you.
Im so glad that I mightve provided some insight to you. Thanks so much for watching 😊
I’m now in college and I’m starting to be unsure about becoming a vet technician. I already have my certificate of vet assistance but I feel like I’m wasting my time. To the point where I don’t even wanna attend a vet school.
@@co0ley2k1 That's a bit scary, why the doubt?
@@ChristianGonzalez-qu6fs just after a while some people think about the career path they want to achieve. As much as I love animals, I can’t see myself as a vet because 1. I suck at science 2. Math is not my cup of tea 3. I studied soo many times in my vet terminology class and still failed all my tests plus all my folks want is me to be in the medical field, when I keep telling them the medical field isn’t all I want. Yea there’s a high demand but not everybody can be in the medical field
@@co0ley2k1 Yeah I totally get you on the math part. I'm absolute dog shit at math but its quite the contrast for science, at least with what I've experienced so far. I'm hoping I can keep my science end strong while learning to get better at math( I never put much effort into learning because I was a dumb kid). Knowing that though, I think I want to attempt this path and see how I find it. If it's not for me then I will change, but hopefully success finds me of course.
Thanks for the honest review..it helps a lot. I just needed
to know how much time do you spend studying each day during the vet school???
The second reason is so true in LMICs, it’s hard to imagine from different spheres of the world. Things are changing gradually but it costed much to be a vet of early generations.
Bruh this is crazy this video popped up on my recommendation I’m literally going back to school for this. must be the man above telling me something.
I hope this showed you that it really isn't as bad as the title suggests ahha
Thank u for this🙌🥰
You’re welcome 😊 Thank you so much for watching!
Great video! Im currently in my gap year after finishing high school. My whole life have been centred around becoming a vet (I sure did make it my identity, wops). Now I'm very unsure. I've been questioning if it's the right decision for almost a year now. In my country vets have the highest suicide rate. I have been talking to other vets to get some insight. The support system is very bad, and so is the salary. Where I live it takes about the same time to become a doctor and a vet. So I'm leaning more towards human medicine. It sucks to let go of your life-long dream, but I don't think vet med is the right decision..
why not study and work at a different country instead ?? it's sad to let go your dreams and passion , but figure out what's best for you :)
Hey! I definitely agree with the other response, there are always options oversea or in different areas. You can definitely achieve your dream if you want to :)
I feel you, this is what happened to me. I'm sad every time I remember the dream I let go and it's hard to focus and fall in love with med school, but i'm just going with it
what r u doing now...am in the same position rn
SO DAMN RELATABLE 😭😭
Thanks for watching!! 🥰
💜yayyyy new video
Thanks so much for watching!!
@@jesscliffee Thank YOU for filming💜 you're amazing and gorgeous!
Thank you❤️
Thanks for watching 🥰
Salute to you 👍🤟
Thank you!!!
Dude for real I’m having like a breakdown per day ✨ because I’m currently in the application process. All these things feel like a lifetime away?? Yet it could be just around the corner????? Seriously how did you deal with the application process?!?
In New Zealand I think we have a very different application/selection process to overseas, but I wish you the absolute best, keep calm and look after yourself!
I understand completely but I still want to be a veterinarian
Hey! I’m currently in year 12 and am heading towards vet nursing however I really really REALLY want to become a vet!! The only thing that is stopping me is that I’m terrible with maths and chemistry, along with that also comes physics. Im so extremely lost and upset cuz as much as I want to become a vet I know I’m mentally not capable of the amount of study. Would u or anyone in the comments have any advice or had the same problem?? your videos are so inspiring and motivate me more and more everyday to work hard to become a vet!!!
You can’t be bad at something. All u need is practice. I still think u should shadow a vet before deciding what career to choose. After that all u need to do is push ur self for those prereqs
@@Ohjulieannee thank you! I have shadowed a few vets this year and it is what has made me realise I’ve been working towards the wrong thing (vet nursing) :)
Thank you so much for your support!! I think tutoring and practice can help a lot in your situation :)
I’ve decided I want to be a vet! I get the grades so that’s not a problem but I think I’d struggle with losing animals because I love them so much. Is there a vet that goes into the wild such as the savannah and deals with the lions zebras elephants giraffes etc. if you know please let me know! I really want to work with animals like these :)
you are a star 🤩
You're too kind 🥰
becoming a vet is one of my dreams. What do I need to study or to memorize? I'm planning to start with dogs,I want to memorize their breeds. It is okay?
Hi! You can definitely do this, but is not essential :)
I sugest you to study physiology
I really hope you reply so I’m a freshman in high school in Saudi Arabia and it take 6 year and my dad is a vet and i don’t know
Goodluck!! Thanks for watching!
@@jesscliffee thank you
Do u think its more stressful than dentistty?
easily
you look fire in this video by the way
Omg thank you 🥰
How much do you pay?
What do you mean?
@@jesscliffee like how much do you pay for college? I wanna be a vet but then I look at how much college is and they I get discouraged and unmotivated.
@@keilianne2598 I pay around $13K per year in New Zealand :)
Euthanasia is certainly a difficult subject and as a veterinarian, I am sure you will have very mixed emotions as you perform the procedure. For the times where an animal is so sick and every day is such agony, I view Euthanasia as a gift. It relieves the animal of its pain and allows it to pass with dignity and tranquility. I have had many pets in my life and each one of them has been very special to me. We Euthanized our last dog about three years ago and as sad as it made me, I knew she would no longer struggle. I did not want to remember her the way she was in her last days. I wanted to remember her as the vigorous, intelligent, kind and loving companion she was to my wife. Our vet was great and she held back tears as we watched our beloved dog pass. I thanked her after the procedure and I told her I was happy that she was no longer struggling. I miss her every day but I know she is in a better place.
