2. Comments about admission to a veterinary school:
Entrance to veterinary school is very competitive. Applicants will likely be required to take the GRE. Some instead may be required to take the VCAT (covers biology and chemistry). Work experience at a veterinary clinic and shadowing a veterinarian would enhance the resume.3. Veterinary Schools:
