Question mcat

well on the vet app. they have both gre and mcat. so i was stoked, just wasn't sure about the actual accepting score. of course i would rather not test the gre since i have mcat. anyways how do you like the vet school theere? are there liscencing issues state to state like the MD or if you become a vet you can work anywhere?

oops, I guess I was wrong. From a page on the SGU website:

Applicants from North America
Quote:


A completed bachelor’s degree from an accredited university is required for direct entry into the veterinary sciences. A candidate may apply before completion of the bachelor degree, however, a candidate’s acceptance will be withdrawn if the degree is not obtained.
Standardized Examination: Candidates must submit scores on the Graduate Record Examination or alternatively on the MCAT. (Our GRE Code is 7153; MCAT code 904.)
My bad! I have no idea what kind of scores would be needed though, sorry.

no sweat...just interested is all. ill call the admissions sometime this week. i figure within a 20+ range should get a good chance? how is the app #'s for vet. one of the reason i went md instead of vet is that i heard it was super hard to get into vet.

The current 1st term was the first to have a waiting list, or so I'm told by one of the Dean's. It can be extremely hard to get into vet school in the U.S. There is high demand for only 22 (maybe 23 or 24 now) schools and often the students are 3.7 GPA or higher. I don't know what their average GRE's are.

That being said, it is easier to get in down here. Some stats are listed above as you have probably seen. Usually the incoming January classes are less competitive than the August. This may be the better time to apply whether you're a strong candidate or not.
