So, I talked to my counselor today about switching majors, well not neccessarily majors but going from veterinary, to vet tech certificate instead, but still get my AS degree. I asked the counselor and he said that I could do this, but he doesn't think that I can get an AS degree at the JC but I can do an AA, I would just have to have a major in some type of science. Anyway, since it was early bird registration stuff, I was only able to talk with him for 15 minutes, so he told me to make an appointment for spring to come back to get the major and certificate thing straightened out and right now I just focus on classes for next semester. So, for now he put my goal as animal health tech, and I am going to be taking English, Bio 10, and 2 animal health classes, which I am excited about. Well, I will talk to you guys later, bye!

You do love animals... and this is a great way to be working if you want to become a vet...
great job Amanda..
just curious, why the switch?
Good job with being proactive and motivated. You are doing great!
I switched because i read the requirements for UC davis and I just felt that it would make me too stressed out to try and get it all done by the time I was going to transfer. Also, I kind of rather be asisting the doctor, but still do many of the same things. so i knew myself and i knew i would have way too much anxiety at this point in my life, and this way I still have the same type of job and can get my general ed done.
interesting, i kinda did the same thing, but also didn't. One the one hand I know I hate research and could give a crap about conducting it, so thats why I don't want to do psych grad school, but on the other hand, I would probably have an easier time had I done something like journalism, but instead decided to take on the toughness of psychology...very cool that you know you
so wait, then would u not be going to UC davis?
well I wouldn't be going now, if later on in my life i decide i want to become a veterinarian, i will have the AA degree to back me up and go, to UC Davis or where ever to become a doctor. But for now I can at least be a vet tech which is what I like anyway.
