I am currently a sophomore and I truly want to become a veterinarian but it looks difficult. Im not really smart in math especially geometry, I believe its because I had a bad teacher but now I'm going to retake it because I want to learn it from the beginning.

Becoming a vet entails many years of studying and dedication. Is it hard ? No more difficult then studying for anything else if you really want it.

Hard is a relative term. Becoming a vet requires almost the same schooling as a human doctor.

Proficiency in higher mathematics is not as necessary, but biology, chemistry and those sciences are necessary.

You should speak to your academic counselor who can advise you what courses you should take to prepare.

Hint: Poor geometry performance may be linked directly to poor ability to memorize.

I was never good at geometry and didn't have a problem memorizing or I would not have got as far as I have professionally. Some people are 'bent' that way, some are not. I hate math but tolerate anything I have to do with it. Happily I don't have to use geometry or math as a registered nurse's aid or a PSW. :D
