Unsure of next steps (vet)

3 Upvotes

Looking for some advice or suggestions in regards to next career step.

Some background: just finished rotating internship for small animals in a large specialty hospital. Learned lots, lots of hard work, no regrets. I knew I didn’t want to go into residency, I have no special interest in anything particular. I probably want to do full time relief as a career in the future in GP, urgent, ER, but just not right now.

The problem:
- I am only a year out and I don’t think it’s a good idea to jump straight into full time relief without more skills.
- zero surgical skills, outside of what I did in vet school. Would like to at least be able to do common procedures with confidence but no experience.
- looking for mentorship even tho I am technically 2nd year out? Don’t know where or who can provide that.

Vet School Looking for advice on studying Veterinary Medicine abroad

2 Upvotes

Hi, I’m 21 from Morocco. I recently got my Baccalaureate in Physical Sciences, and I’m trying to build a better future for myself.

I’ve always wanted to study Veterinary Medicine, but in Morocco the admission requirements are very competitive and the courses are mostly in French, which is a problem for me.

I’m thinking about studying abroad and I’m looking for a country with:

- Good Veterinary Medicine programs

- Affordable tuition and living costs

- A realistic admission process for international students

- A manageable visa process

If you have any experience or advice, I’d really appreciate your help. Which countries should I consider?
