Hi,

My name is Ruby and I have wanted my whole life to work with animals. I want to study to become a vet them hopefully go on to work as a wildlife vet. I am very interested in animal behaviour and psychology and would perhaps go on to specialise in this. I am 20 and have got a National Diploma in Animal Management (pass). I was going to apply for an access course to veterinary universities but I am unsure if I would even be considered. I would be 21 when I joined so a mature student.
I have a lot of experience which I hope will help me;
- I volunteered at a vets for two years on weekends,
- I did my weeks work experience at Tropiquaria,
- I worked at a cattery for a year,
- I volunteered with a wildlife vet in S.Africa for a month,
- I volunteered in Israel at a nature reserve/zoo for four months
- and have plently of experience with farm animals and horses

Would this experience help me or is that normal for some one applying for vet unis?

Many thanks,
Ruby
