I hear ya!  I almost decided on becoming a vet, but the extra time in school and its expense (and a similar problems with sciences) turned me in another direction.  While that's not tthe answer to your question, you may want to post it in the pets area, where the vets and animal techies hang out at ---> http://answers.yahoo.com/dir/;_ylt=AkLpoQhwUXk97ihDYVLXCnzpy6IX?link=list&sid=396545443\n\nAs you study those sciences, maybe have posters or pics of cute puppies and happy dogs to help keep your nose in those books!  Get stuck... just look up.\n\nThe pic up there is Yogi, and I have to clean his ears 3-4 times a week.  Nasty smelly job, but he looks so happy when I'm done!\n\nBest of luck!

I began my schooling for more IT knowledge at a California Extension University (UCLA).  When I needed more options I began taking online classes at UC Santa Cruz Extension.  They have many courses and certificate programs. Online is a lot of reading and quizzes but you should learn the material with all of this. UC Santa Cruz lists all of the Extension schools in CA at http://www.ucsc-extension.edu/ucsc/generalInfo/aboutUs/resources.jsp  Santa Cruz seems (along with UCLA Extension) to offer the most IT related courses.

To become a veterinarian you will need to have an undergraduate major in a biology-related field.  These majors often require calculus I and II.  Some veterinary schools require statistics for admission but not all.  There are currently 28 accredited veterinary schools in the country and each one has slightly different admissions course requirements.  Admission into veterinary school is highly residency based, so identify your "state school" and find their particular requirements.  Its not impossible to get in, particularly into your state school.  Study hard, keep up with the Math and get as much experience working with animals and veterinarians as possible!  Best of luck.

california has hundreds of colleges, in the cities and country side. the ones in the cities have especially diverse backgrounds, and you should fit right in.

I would say UC Davis is the best. \n\nYou could always look up the list online, just type in top 100 medical schools in USA - then look through it for ones in Cali

I suggest you find a vet school you might want to go to and contact them and ask them what they are looking for. That might help you plan better:-)

I would say the best thing to do is talk to people who have gone to the schools. Is you are still in school for your bacholor's degree talk to your professors. One school may be better than the other as far as academics depending on the area of study you are in. I know that Penn State has an good Animal Sciences program.

University of the pacific is one of the best. It is in Stockton, California. It is competitive to get in but with grades like that you should be fine. http://www.uop.edu/ is the website. You should check it out. Other than that UCLA is good for almost everything but extremely hard to get into. the CSUs are good also but some are better than others. You should look for a list ranking the best schools for dentistry or at least science. Besides that it is good to look for a school that is well rounded in case you find dentistry is not the thing for you. Also environment. If you want a college by the beach or not. University of the pacific is not by the beach i'll tell you right now. But it offers great training and has a clinic on campus to get hands on experience . Students and people in the community can go for teeth cleanings etc. for a nominal fee while students get the opportunity to learn from experience. i know I enjoyed the school and my friends in the dentistry program, while challenging felt that they were learning skills that would prepare them.

West Texas A&M in Canyon (near Amarillo) offers the Equine Industry Program.  The Panhandle is a great place to be if you're interested in horses!  Check the link for more info.  :)

In CA, the best would be USC or UCLA.\n\nHowever, there are a lot of other good schools not in California if you would be interested, including Columbia University, NYU, Ithaca College, and Weseleyan University.  Hope these names are something different than what you've been hearing. Vote me for best answer! :)

It depends on the school you want to go to.  Find this out first, before you make any leaps.\n\nGenerally, vet school looks for basic first and second year:\n\nBiology\nChemistry\nOrganic Chemistry\nCalculus\nPhysics\nEnglish\nStats\n\nalso helpful:\nBioethics\nZoology\nAnatomy

The prior response from JetGirly is "spot on" - let me add a few practical considerations.\n\nExcept for a handful of institutions, colleges are in competition for students. They want you to go to their school. They obviously will have consideration for the applicants with a combination of the highest grades/GPA/"something to enhance the college" mix, but you don't have to worry about there being some mandated "we have too many RTF students so let's cut back" directive from on high.\n\nI ran a search on usnews.com of colleges in California with Film majors - it came to 28.  7 are UC and 2 are Cal State branches. \n\nYou can go to the individual websites and look at their admissions profiles to see which is the best fit for you. Or, you can sign up for the US News premium service [I think it is $14.95 for a year], plug in your personal information [SAT, GPA, major desired, distance from home, scholarship fund available, and so forth] and let their system make some suggestions. You might be pleasantly surprised.\n\nGood luck to you - this is an exciting time of life for you\n\nPS "RTF" is radio-TV-film

UC Davis- Texas A&M-\n\nHave to enter a pre-professional program before actually getting into vet school- So, at least 7-8 years of schooling. Figure it in at- at least 15,000 a year- its pretty steep but worth it. : )
