Change of Career Path
Considering that I haven't posted in a very long time, I've decided that I'd explain why this is. Since the summer I've come to the conclusion that maybe vet school isn't the thing for me (mostly since my work experience at Blackpool Zoo and due to AS-level results).
Weirdly, I think that this is definitely the right decision for me. I'm glad that I found out now and not in the first year of a veterinary degree. I applied for 5 different zoology courses, around October/November time, at 5 different universities and I've received 4 offers.
To begin with I was quite upset at the thought of not being able to become a vet, however now that time has progressed, I think that zoology is a much better match for me and my interests. After my week at Blackpool Zoo, doubts were put into my mind as to whether veterinary was definitely for me. Due to me wanting to become a vet for so long, I hadn't properly considered other animal related jobs (which there are a countless number of).
I never thought that I would be sat here happily writing "I want to become a zoologist", but now I can honestly say that I'm looking forward to beginning a zoology degree, hopefully in September/October.
