    I am a senior in highschool and I have always wanted to be a veterinarian! I thought last year that vet school was going to kill me and there was no way I could do it. But I got my act together and I am currently working on getting hours. I know you need a ton! I love how passionate you are about your profession! You always have a smile on your face! It really inspires me, please continue to make videos! You really help prepare me with what I should expect and what I need to do!

    I’m 14 and I want to be an equine veterinarian someday. :) I’m not experienced with horses (like, at all) so I have been studying the equine anatomy a lot lately. I have trouble grasping hold of the different muscles in a horse, but the parts of the horse’s skeleton is easy for me to understand.

    Hey Amanda! Ive been watching your videos for quite some time now, Im JUST starting my journey in becoming a vet, First year college student! As ive been watching your videos, ive noticed that most of your time is dedicated to school... is there time for a job while in Vet school?

    • @yourvetamanda
      @yourvetamanda  3 роки тому +1

      I think it really is personal preference! I count youtube as a part time job, and it's really about making time for it! However, I do have a lot of flexibility since it's my own business. I know some people have jobs throughout vet school, but I would say the majority don't just because it's a really demanding program! Hope this helps 😊

  • @OtterMayhem7

    Love watching your vids! Currently a pre-vet student! I wanted to ask how exactly you study though? You mentioned making those one page study guides for finals. But how do you know all the small details for your midterms? I guess I wonder how you actually take the time to learn and take in all the material in vet school. Thanks!!!

    • @yourvetamanda
      @yourvetamanda  4 роки тому +2

      So it really depends on the class! For principals of disease, which is the course I was studying for in the video, I actually just went through all my slides and read them over a couple times. Once I did that I went to each lab that was associated with the lecture. Our prof structured the course so our labs were class examples highlighting the concepts of each lecture. After I had read over my notes I went back and did the labs on my own to make sure I understood the concepts! Sorry if that wasn’t super helpful, I have another video on my channel talking about how I studied for anatomy and physiology that might help more :)

      @@yourvetamanda I would love a video like that as well! I used to make outlines in word to understand the material and then make flash cards in Anki. But it’s taking me SO much time. I recently started using RemNote which turns my notes into flash cards to kind of cut out a step. But I don’t know if flash cards is always the best way to learn, you mentioned going thru & reading a couple times but information never sticks in my head that way unfortunately. In the moment I’m like oh yeah I understand that, then comes test time and I’m like uhhh lol

      For as long as I can remember I always wanted to be a vet. I honestly don’t removed if there was something that triggered it because it feels like that’s all I ever told people that I wanted to do when I was growing up! So that’s all I looked into when I was going through my schooling! I never had a plan B really :)

      Not too sure what you mean by vet diploma vs degree - I only have experience applying to OVC so it may be different elsewhere but here we have to complete at least 3 years of an undergraduate degree before we can apply to vet school which is 4 years! Hope this helps :)
