[QUOTE="jersey lilly, post: 116094, member: 2258"] High Schools have become easier? hmmm when's the last time you tried to help a high schooler with homework? Also...on the Vet student topic. Texas A&M supposedly has a superior vet school, which I dont doubt...but if your sending your kid there(average tuition of $60,000 a year) to get the first 4 years and a animal science degree, then turn around and apply at their vet school (which is what you have to do.."apply" even after attending 4 years there. They can still turn you down and not accept you. That's a bunch of bs if you ask me. Another note for those of us living in rural communities....my son's graduating class had a total of 6 kids. When it come time to apply for college...boy were my eyes opened. He graduated with 4 yr grade point average of a 3.75. Applied for college and was turned down.....there reason was because he fell in the lower 1/4 of his class. Excuse me but does that not tell them that these six kids all came thru highschool with extremely good grades?... Also...how do you know your vet didnt graduate with a low C?...you don't unless he's goofy enuff to tell you. but on the other hand I think his job is alot like our job.. the more you see and do the more you learn. So even if he did graduate vet school with a C - he could be the best darn vet there ever was sayin he has a few years experience under his belt. These same things apply to your medical doctor..think about it. Just my opinions - [/QUOTE]
