My class was gifted a stethoscope also. For online learning, blue blocking glasses are #1 for me. As long as classes are each day, the blue blocking glasses have saved me so much eye pain.
Thank you for the essential list and links! I found it very useful and I like how you included the NAVLE prep questions because I actually think that’s great that you’re starting early to expose yourself with those questions. Love your videos and advice! I’m not sure if you already have done so but maybe a video suggestion could be vet school essentials - tech edition in regards of essential apps and accessories for your ipad and macbook.
Hi everyone. I will go to a vet school this year and I'm not sure what to buy first A tablet or a laptop . As my budget is not enough for both of the devices right now 😢. Hope you give me your opinion. And thank you
I’m a first year university student studying pre-veterinary medicine at UPEI and watching your videos are SO helpful for me. I’m hoping to apply to the AVC in 3-5 years so I love having this knowledge beforehand to help prepare me when the time comes. 🥰
I've watched so many student essentials videos and yours was BY FAR the best. I never even thought of getting a suture kit or looking at NAVLE Prep questions! I also LOVE my iPad for taking notes!
Aww this is a great video! I plan on doing something similar for veterinary assistants! I really wished my teachers would allow me ipad at school but most of them have a strict no technology policy....
I learned how to use notion from videos on RUclips! I have a few on how I used it for vet school but there’s some really good beginner tutorials on RUclips as well!!
I’m not sure actually! The DVM program is considered an undergraduate program so I only have experience applying to those! You can check out their website and I’m sure they’ll have more information about post-graduate funding ☺️
Hi I have a toy poodle who has a weak tummy no chicken and I have a chi who don’t like salmon I’m looking for healthy less stuff treats. Any tips? I got them a game they shoots out treats and I want they can both have. Round ones thx
I love your videos! I'm finding them super interesting and informative since I'm hoping to attend Guelph for vet school aswell. Just in my second year of biology at the University of Waterloo currently! 😁
Hello, I'm a french student and I'm 15 yo. I really wanna do my vet studies in Canada. I would like to do my last high-school year in Canada, I think it we allows me to familarze me with the language. It's hard to understand the Canadian school system, so I would like juste to be sure if I correctly understood : After highschool, I will have to do 2 years of undergraduate with the program of my choice and after it, I will have to be accept in the vet school for graduate (or post-graduate I never know). But the problem is that if I arrive at Canada for the last years of highschool, I don't know if I will have the time to acquire the necessary experience (with voluntary work or jobs). With talking about experience, I didn't understood if it's required to be accept in the university or in the vet school ? I think the minimal marks required are to be accept in the undergraduate and the experience is to be accept in the graduate (or post-graduate). Also, if I move to Canada, I will do it alone because my parents want to stay in France. So do you know all the administrative procedures I will have to do if I wanna be accept in a university (a think about the Calgary's University to be a wildlife vet in cold area) ? And if at 17 yo it will be possible to do all the administrative procedures. Thanks a lot for your time and your help ! (by the way I really love your videos) And sorry for my English that is probably not incredible, don't hesitate to tell me if I made mistakes in the language, I will not take it bad, on the contrary. Tkanks again and good continuation !
I didn't see that you made a live with a lot of interresting answers. And you said that we have to lived in Canada for four years to apply for vet school, but if go to Canada in the last year of highschool, it won't be 4 years :/
To apply as a Canadian resident you have to live in Canada for 4 years before your application, however if you want to apply as an international student you can, you’ll just need to pay international tuition which is quite expensive!
Hello, Amanda! I recently got accepted for the Veterinarian Program. Thank you for the essentials. I want to know where did you get the name tag for the stethoscope?
Iam planning to practice in US after my grads . I discovered that as I am from India , I have to write ECFVG or PAVE to practice there then the NAVLE .
I can’t share any of my lecture notes from first year due to copyright reasons but I’m currently working on anatomy study guides that will hopefully be available for purchase and download come September!
Thank you so much, this video was very useful! I have one question... Do you think I should buy all this things before I start my first year in vet school?
I would wait until you start school, some schools may have different requirements for what you need! For example, my school gifts all their students a stethoscope, so I didn't have to buy one, but I know at other schools students have to buy one themselves! So I would definitely wait to see what you really need!
I applied in my third year of undergrad and didn't get accepted, so I applied again in my fourth year and got in on that attempt! In terms of timeline, I submitted my application in February, had my interview in May and found out a few weeks later that I was accepted! 😊
This is probably a silly question but do all stethoscopes work the same? Some are 200 pounds whilst some are 20 but surely they all let you hear a heartbeat in the same way??
Not a silly question at all! I don't know the physics or the mechanics behind it, but I've definitely noticed a difference in the sounds I can hear when I use cheaper vs more expensive stethoscopes. You'll be able to hear a heartbeat on any stethoscope, the quality of the sound or the little details you hear will differ!
@@yourvetamanda Oh, alright thank you! I know you have an Ipad and incase you didn't know you can buy a fake apple pencil on Amazon that's a lot cheaper than the real thing!
Definitely not the same! (currently working as a technician and holy crap some of the clinic-provided stethoscopes hurt my ears and you can't really expect to hear a grade II murmur with them). 3M Littmann III costs about $120 and works great for me. If you really want to downgrade a little bit, Littmann lightweight II (~$50) has pretty good sounds for the price, but the rubber is a bit tougher, and it may not work as well in noisy environments like ER.
Honest, the iPad pro had just come out so I figured might as well get the newest model! I didn't even really look into the air but I know a few people who have the air and love it!
Let me know what your vet school essentials are 🤍🩺
Coffee ☕☕☕❤️❤️❤️ HAHAHA
Great video Merry Christmas Which stethoscope do you have?
@@drei000 I have the 3M Littmann Classic III in burgundy!
@@yourvetamanda Thanks, what do you look for when listening?
Pro tip: you can also get your scrubs from a thrift store!!!! I've found some really nice Greys Anatomy and Cherokee ones for like $3
No way!! That’s so handy to know ☺️
SAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
@@yourvetamanda It's true and most of the Scrubs are Brand New I've gotten more than 3 Pairs from Thrift Stores :)
I've found that hand sanitizer and hand cream are also absolutely essential when going to clinics. Also bringing spare sets of scrubs.
Omg yes! A spare set of scrubs is a must!!
My class was gifted a stethoscope also. For online learning, blue blocking glasses are #1 for me. As long as classes are each day, the blue blocking glasses have saved me so much eye pain.
Yes, I mentioned those in another video and they are a lifesaver for preventing headaches!

Thanks so much for watching!!! Ouuu that's a great idea, I'll definitely add that to my video list!
Hi everyone.
I will go to a vet school this year and I'm not sure what to buy first
A tablet or a laptop .
As my budget is not enough for both of the devices right now 😢.
Hope you give me your opinion.
And thank you

Aww this is a great video! I plan on doing something similar for veterinary assistants! I really wished my teachers would allow me ipad at school but most of them have a strict no technology policy....
That’d be awesome! I’d be interested to see how it differs for vet assistants!! And oh wow I can’t even imagine having no technology!!
I’m in an inspirational mood for my future so I ended up here 😂
hahah welcome!! hopefully you find some useful info about vet med😊
Is there a more in depth video on Notion? My teacher recommended it, I'm still getting the hang of it
I learned how to use notion from videos on RUclips! I have a few on how I used it for vet school but there’s some really good beginner tutorials on RUclips as well!!
@@yourvetamanda Thank you so much, I'll take a look!

Mam one very important question. ... does your university offer scholarships to the post graduates?....... I am new to the channel.
I’m not sure actually! The DVM program is considered an undergraduate program so I only have experience applying to those! You can check out their website and I’m sure they’ll have more information about post-graduate funding ☺️

Very informative..thank you
Thanks for the bit about the NAVLE, I’d like to sit it after graduating even though I’m a UK student so it’s really helpful to hear 😊
I'm glad you found it helpful! That's amazing, I'm sure you'll do great 😊
I love your videos! I'm finding them super interesting and informative since I'm hoping to attend Guelph for vet school aswell. Just in my second year of biology at the University of Waterloo currently! 😁
So exciting!!! Good luck on the application when you get there and if you have any questions don’t hesitate to reach out! ☺️

I saw your dm on Instagram and replied there!
@@yourvetamanda thank you so much !! It will help me a lot to progress in my search
How do you download the Janice Studies template? I love your videos btw! 🥰
Hello, Amanda! I recently got accepted for the Veterinarian Program. Thank you for the essentials. I want to know where did you get the name tag for the stethoscope?
Congratulations!! So exciting! Mine came with the stethoscope (which was gifted) however you can order them on Amazon I believe!
Iam planning to practice in US after my grads . I discovered that as I am from India , I have to write ECFVG or PAVE to practice there then the NAVLE .
Best of luck!!!
Good Videos
You're gifted a bill!
very good. thx 4 your information
can you upload your notes to a website, where we can download, it will be helpful to us first year Vet school students..Thanks
I can’t share any of my lecture notes from first year due to copyright reasons but I’m currently working on anatomy study guides that will hopefully be available for purchase and download come September!
Waiting❤

Pls say any website for downloading vet notes. Pls pls 🥺
Vet e-books is a good place to find pdfs of veterinary textbooks! I’m not sure of any place to find notes though!
Starting my vetmed studies next year🩺❤️ Any good apps/websites to recommend for vet students?
So exciting!! I love using VIN to watch procedure videos and go over anatomy! Notion is definitely my favourite productivity app/website!
@@yourvetamanda Thank you!! 😊 I’ve never heard about VIN but i’m gonna definitely use it!
How many years did it take for you to get into vet school or did you not need to wait long to be accepted? ❤
I applied in my third year of undergrad and didn't get accepted, so I applied again in my fourth year and got in on that attempt! In terms of timeline, I submitted my application in February, had my interview in May and found out a few weeks later that I was accepted! 😊
where did you get your overalls?
I ordered them through my school! But you can get some on Amazon or at a store like Marks Work Wearhouse!!
This is probably a silly question but do all stethoscopes work the same? Some are 200 pounds whilst some are 20 but surely they all let you hear a heartbeat in the same way??
That’s what I thought but I’m not sure if it depends on the brand or not 😆
Not a silly question at all! I don't know the physics or the mechanics behind it, but I've definitely noticed a difference in the sounds I can hear when I use cheaper vs more expensive stethoscopes.

So worth it!!!

Hey! What made you choose the iPad Pro over the iPad Air?
Honest, the iPad pro had just come out so I figured might as well get the newest model! I didn't even really look into the air but I know a few people who have the air and love it!
@@yourvetamanda That's my deciding factor as well-go new to last the longest. Thank you! Your channel is a huge help to this pre-vet student!
@@yourvetamanda i have the air 2 and id choose the pro over it any day tbh, that’s what i’m getting next x
@@contessalives605 I'm so glad you find it helpful!! Best of luck on your vet journey!
@@lxlamayw Really good to know!! Thanks for your input!
Your name is 'Student Vet Amanda' ,will you change your name when you become a veterinarian?
That’s the plan! I have 2 years to come up with a new name but if you guys have any ideas I’d love to hear them ☺️
@@yourvetamanda what about just vet Amanda and can you make a video on how you do your bullet journal of that as something to do with your vet school
@@yourvetamanda “The Cool Vet Amanda”
