    How to be a Veterinarian?
    Hello
    I am currently trying to complete my bachelors degree, I am a biology major and am considering trying to do vet school. Is there a particular biology track that is best? How much do veterinarians make? How is it joining a practice or starting your own?
    Thank you

    It's always good to take some animal behavior (psych), vertebrate anatomy, and just basic overall "animal" courses.

    Vets make an average of about $75k... depending on which state/area you practice. Lower half made about $50 - 60k, while upper made up to about $120k... but I have a feeling these vets specialize

    Like any profession, you usually join a practice first so that you can get experience and a client basis and people can reference you, then if you want, you can start your own practice.
