I really really want to be a vetttttt!!!!!?

Hm. ): Well, what I did was have what my friends refer to as a "life crisis" (as if we'll all have several, maybe so) and dropped out of college at 21, having decided that my intended major wasn't going to work anymore. Then I spent three years working, then I became an au pair for two years, and just now, these past couple months, at 26, do I feel like my next step is to go back to school. It's unorthodox but works for a lot of people, not just me, to take a break. Because frantically making decisions like you're trying to do right now won't end up helping, you might end up making a choice you regret. I suggest slowing down and asking parents, friends, counselor, whoever, for advice, but really, yours is the only advice that really matters. If you DO think that biology and chemistry are your next step, because you want badly to be a vet, then I'm sure you'll make them work. Don't put yourself down, or you could negatively impact your ability to function in these classes that might be a little harder for you. (And there's no way around it; to practice medicine in any form you need those sciences, sorry.) If you don't want to take a semester to think about it, and you do want to continue forward, shower yourself with praise and get through it. (: If you know you want to be a vet, go for it! You can!
