Becoming a vet was something I was quite interested in, but I think I may enjoy being a vet tech more. It seems like the things vet techs do, are things I enjoy most when discussing veterinary medicine
really important question. i’m not good at remembering, especially when it comes to math, and i’m a slower learner. will i still be able to become a vet tech?
@@mickey1695 yes, definitely! I believe some schools offer a 3 year track instead of a 2 year. And if you are really passionate about it, it shouldn't be a problem. Your teachers should always be there to help and answer questions if you are struggling.
I just graduated High School and I’m interested in being a Vet Tech! School isn’t for me but I still want to learn and help my fellow animals! I’m going to tour a Vet Tech school near me and I just wanted to prepare a little! so thank you ❤
Honestly good explanation, really appreciate the video and your time. I’m graduating as a senior from high school very soon and I’m planning on pursuing that path of being a vet or a vet tech. My mind has been on vet tech for a while, but it’s been so stressful for me to pick what I want to be and where I feel like would be a good place to start. I’m not the most confident person at the moment since I don’t know so much about the animals to take a path of becoming a veterinarian but I think starting as a vet tech and building up those 4 years to have that certificate and who knows maybe in the future I’ll decide to pursue something bigger like a veterinarian.
Hi, I'm a vet tech in Jacksonville and it was really inspirational to see you out here representing Vet Tech and Florida life! Hope to see more soon! :)
HEY! Im in jax & i have a few questions about it down here if you dont mind could you answer them please!! 1) how is the pay out here??? 2) if i wanted to go for vet med could i do thst w/out going for my bachelors & just apply with my associates in science? 3) how are the hours here? 4) how do I volunteer for my clinicals? Do i just go to a vet ER or clinic & ask if i could volunteer for my clinicals during school?? 5) is it possible vet nurses would specificialize in radiology, ophthalmology, dentistry, or anesthesiology??? Bc im interested in these fields
@@amberbernay 1- pay out where? In tampa? 2. If you want to go to vet school, some vet schools will allow you to apply without a full bachelors as long as you satisfy all the pre-reqs but an associates won't satisfy those because those are usually higher sciences/maths. SOME schools do want a full bachelors. You can find each school's requirements on the AAVMC website 3. Are you referencing hours in vet med or? 4. During clinicals of vet school, the school will set everything up. Usually its at the school's teaching hospital. If it's outside of the school, the school coordinates with externship sites, but you get guidance on how that works. 5. Yes! Vet techs/nurses that are licensed can specialize. navta.net/veterinary-technician-specialties/
I wanna become a vet tech and I told myself when I’m ready I’ll go back to school to be a veterinarian. But the mindset I have now, I can’t go to school for that long again. Just not now. School will always be there.
hi brittany! thanks for creating this video. it really cleared up a lot for me. i’ve wanted to be a veterinarian since i was little, but first i’m going for my veterinary technician certification. one step at a time. ☺️
Thanks for this video. I’m doing research to help put my 16 year old daughter though whatever vet job she chooses as it’s always been her desire to work with animals. This help a lot.
I just spun onto you from a Grenada video (where I live), and followed onto this video. Nice to see a grounded, genuine, balanced person who hasn't got a superiority complex, and will probably work in or run a great veterinary practice appreciating her colleagues.
I’m not sure what I should do i am a veterinary assistant/college student dreaming of becoming a veterinarian, but my math skills are horrible because of my learning disability. i am not sure which path is correct for me. i don’t want to give up on my dreams of becoming a veterinarian, but my math skills bring me down
I think you should still try! Math is not the whole career. Is there math? Yes. And it has to be accurate math. But that's only a very small part of the field. I feel like if you work to support that one aspect you can definitely do it
Because of where I attended school I have two free years of community college, everything including books paid. I'm currently deciding between three situations: #1 study advanced transportation and get a job with my father's company as a diesel mechanic (two year program, can start working immediately after certificate) #2 working in an oil rig (long hours but good pay) #3 following my childhood dream of becoming a veterinarian. Everyone in my life knows how much I love animals and they're shocked I'm not immediately pursuing this. While I do love animals I feel like it's not very practical as I'm not a very studious person, I don't like school, and I hardly study as it is. (Will need to take out loans, don't like studying, I don't want to go to school for that long, and no telling if that will even make me happy in the long run.) Ps. I don't care about cars, never have, but my dad makes a decent amount of money after two years of community college, and it's something I can get into. I'm just having serious doubts about what path to choose. I'm 17 and I graduate in two months. I don't know what to do. I'm terrified of being that old person saying "oh I wish I blah blah blah when I was young and still had the chance".
Don't over think it. Like you said, you are young. Work for a year or 2 and figure out what you really want. I worked odd jobs for 2 years out of school, then went to be a nurse. 15 years later, I am in my 30s with a husband, 3 children, still a nurse, and we run a kennel breeding Cane Corsos. Because of vet bills and the lack of people doing large animal vetrinary work, I am now looking at going back to school to fill that gap in our community and help out the farmers. Life is strange, and you never know what is going to happen.
Great video Britt I am glad you did this video because it gives persons options in terms of what they can do in the veterinary medical field. For persons who are struggling in vet school to become a DVM, this is something they can look at so that they can still do a similar thing if they love the vet field. I agree with your comment about you doing all the different jobs in the vet field so you have an idea of what each entails, what it was like in terms of the experience, what you liked and did not like. It does give you greater appreciation and understanding of these fields and what others go through. I think this is a unique video too because I am sure people are wondering what the differences were and you break it down into laymans terms and of course you come from a place of authenticity and empathy. I think you would be a great vet as a result of this. If you can, it would be nice to see some videos of what you actually do at the clinical schools so people can actually see what goes on and I am curious too about what it entails.
How do you get licensed as a vet tech? I know I plan to go to a community college with a customized degree towards Pre-vet which would take 2 years and I would earn my associates for vet tech but how do I get licensed for that once I earn the associates? I have no experience at all and maybe I should get a job as a front desk or kennel tech first? But what sucks is I live in the middle of no where at the moment.
If you go to a university that offers a vet tech program, you will get experience in that program. Even if you do an online vet tech program, it will still require you to get "internship" hours of experience. Doing a random 2 year "pre-vet" degree isn't the same as a vet tech 2 year degree as a specific vet tech degree will have you take courses specific to vet medicine in the tech role (i.e - anatomy, physiology, medical math, basic pharmacology, radiology techniques, etc). After you complete the program, you will have to take a national license exam through the AASVB. The exam is called the VTNE. I don't know more specifics outside of this, but usually within the program, it will speak more on how to complete your licensure and everything
i currently go to vti for vet tech near my home and there is no pay change for uncertified or certified where i live, and we dont get to do all these duties unless youre really good, or emergency....also most wont hire unlicensed even if its not required here. currently missing nursing a bit...
Hello, I love that your video was so informative! I’m going to university soon and I already have a degree plan for Biomedical Sciences planned for the Veterinary field. However, watching this video made me realize I’ll enjoy being a Vet Tech more than a Veterinarian. Would the degree plan still help me achieve be a Vet Tech or do I need to change it specifically for that field?
It would help, but you would still need to enroll in a vet tech program to become certified/licensed. You could do your 4 year degree, because you'll have a full degree and then maybe do one of the 1-2 year vet tech programs after? Or you could save time and just try finding a 4 year vet tech program from the start
My daughter wants to pursue vet medicine but we are confused. She is not sure whether she wants to pursue a doctorate as a veterinarian but she knows she want to work in a clinic. Is it better for her to get a Associates as Vet Technician or a Bachelors in Vet Technology? I am concerned about cost and don’t want to waste money if it’s not needed. I know she want to be able to assist with surgery.
A bachelor's vet technology degree would set her up in case she did decide to go to vet school one day. However, if she doesn't want to go the full 8 years, an associate vet tech degree would be just as equivalent in the vet tech world. Usually there's no pay difference/role difference for an associate vet tech vs bachelor's vet tech except the amount of schooling and taking more typical college level courses. Both would allow her to assist in surgery, assist in exams, etc
Hi Brittany, I just enrolled at Penn Fosters Vet tech program after dropping out of nursing school. I’ve always wanted to work with animals more than people, but the pay has steered me away! Do you think attending an online program do you think I’ll get hired? Online programs just work best for me at this point in life!
Yes 100%. you'll definitely need to get that hands on experience, but alot of clinics want licensed techs now that have the formal training. Also, some clinics (and states in general) are more strict on what a licensed vs unlicensed tech can do
You are one of the prettiest veterinarians I’ve seen and you’re so young. I wish I would have started earlier. I wasted so much time trying to decide what I wanted to do. I’ve always known I wanted to work with animals though. Do you believe a Vet nurse practitioner job will be created? They are supposed to be between a veterinarian and vet tech. Also What’s the highest paid Vet Tech specialty job?
Thank you and its better late than never! We still need super passionate people even if you came into the field a little later. I think a vet nurse practitioner would be a great step in the vet world, but honestly I'm unsure. I feel like the gap between licensed vet techs and vet assistants needs to be made more clear for the field to move in the direction of creating another vet professional role. I'm also not sure, but perhaps a surgery technician or ER tech because those licensed techs can often perform alot of procedures but I'm not 100% sure
I want to be a vet technician but my school only has a premedicine program and has only a 4 year program for a bachelor of science and you know in order to be a vet technician you need a associate degree. Can i stlll be a vet technician still since i would have my bachelor's degree? and also later on i would want to be a veterinarian too but i would have to move to go there since LSU has a vet school and mcneese university doesn't only a premedicine program. What should i do?
most people work during summer (and sometimes winter) breaks to save up a little cash but honestly during school, most people genuinely don't have the time to maintain a consistent job
I do have a question though for being things such as a vet tech what major would be better like animal science or veterinary and biomedical major or does the major really matter ?
I want to do the extreme school but don’t feel comfortable performing a surgery and being in charge. Do you know if vet tech can specialize or do extra studies after they finish their vet tech program?
This is the same for me. I won’t be paying for it but my mom is and I don't want her to pay so much since she's already paying for my sister who is going to be a nurse. 😓
Question, I am considering pursuing vet tech degree as I love dogs so much. Do you have to handle birds during study/training? I ask before I have a bird phobia. I know it is weird, but I don't think I could pursue this if I need yo touch any type of birds.
I don't think so. Some tech programs may some large animal (horse, livestock) experience, but not straight bird. Also, not weird. My dad is afraid of birds too :)
I am recently foreign graduated veterinarian can u tell me if I registered myself in ECVFG so after registration can I come to USA as a vet tech until I give my exams is that possible or I can choose other options like if I can pass my bcse which is first step before navle and after that can they allow me to do as a vet tech Job or I come to USA by just registration in ECVFG
What you should do is sense your not into studying as what I see and vet school is still lots of lectures and studying you should pick which job you want and then vouleenter at a shelter so you are still with animals. Oh sorry I mean for your fathers company if two ears is fine then you should start working that’s good but you can pick obviously 😅
I think the vet school application process is built in such a way that it filters out a lot of people, people giving up on their own even before applying. I am a vet student and 9 out of every 10 techs I have met told me they wanted to become a vet, but they never really worked for it, just gave lots of excuses.......and then I have nothing to say to them.
I have to disagree with this video. If you become a vet tech ( I’m a vet tech) you will be setting yourself up for failure. You will always be broke, never be able to eat a decent living. Use vet teching to work your way up to becoming a doctor, or else become a nurse and ear a living wage.
Cant u just directly explain?? do you think people have time to listen to your different stories ?? try to come to the direct point while making videos. Thank you
I’m stuck. I came to this video because I’m currently satisfying the prerequisites for PennVet, BUT I think I just wanna be a vet tech instead. I wish I had the answer. I’m a veterinary assistant now and I know I want more than this, just not sure how much more 🥲 Edit: I also feel obligated to become a veterinarian since there aren’t a lot of DVM’s that look like us
Don't feel "obligated". We need great techs/nurses too and there's nothing inferior about that! You can message me on Instagram too if you have that! Look into a 2 or 4 year tech program so your pre-reqs already completed don't go to waste
Becoming a vet was something I was quite interested in, but I think I may enjoy being a vet tech more. It seems like the things vet techs do, are things I enjoy most when discussing veterinary medicine

The only difference is vets are underpaid and vet techs are EXTREMELY underpaid
How much do they get paid is it that low
@@BeyTeyyvery very low.
Geaps of good points and giving me something to think about . . Thankyou fir doing this video MUCH APPRECIATED !!!!!

If you don’t administer medicine nor do surgeries if you’re a vet tech, what things should you prepare yourself to handle?
I've been watching you sneakily since day 1! I love your videos. Good luck on your NAVLE!

There is no option in Canada , it's only 2 years max.
I have a question, can you work like while studying in a vet school can you work in animals hospitals like to get money while studying?
most people work during summer (and sometimes winter) breaks to save up a little cash but honestly during school, most people genuinely don't have the time to maintain a consistent job

Yes they can for sure and work in specialty settings as well!
if i do a bachelors in science in vet tech, can i go to vet school after?
I wanted to be a vet for so long. But I just can’t take that much loans out and be in that debt it’s not for me :/ vet tech it is I guess
This is the same for me. I won’t be paying for it but my mom is and I don't want her to pay so much since she's already paying for my sister who is going to be a nurse. 😓

How many years did it take you to become a veterinarian when u were a vet tech?
I worked as a tech during school breaks. It took me 7.5 years of school (3.5 years of undergrad, 4 years of vet school)
Is Penn Foster the online Vet Tech option reputable?
I believe so. It's one of the most popular ones
I am recently foreign graduated veterinarian can u tell me if I registered myself in ECVFG so after registration can I come to USA as a vet tech until I give my exams is that possible or I can choose other options like if I can pass my bcse which is first step before navle and after that can they allow me to do as a vet tech Job or I come to USA by just registration in ECVFG
I'm not familiar with the process. I know that you could get a vet tech job in the meantime though until passing navle.
What you should do is sense your not into studying as what I see and vet school is still lots of lectures and studying you should pick which job you want and then vouleenter at a shelter so you are still with animals.

Or a Vet Nurse Practitioner when that job is created.

do you think people have time to listen to your different stories ?? try to come to the direct point while making videos. Thank you
I’m stuck. I came to this video because I’m currently satisfying the prerequisites for PennVet, BUT I think I just wanna be a vet tech instead. I wish I had the answer. I’m a veterinary assistant now and I know I want more than this, just not sure how much more 🥲
Edit: I also feel obligated to become a veterinarian since there aren’t a lot of DVM’s that look like us
Don't feel "obligated". We need great techs/nurses too and there's nothing inferior about that! You can message me on Instagram too if you have that! Look into a 2 or 4 year tech program so your pre-reqs already completed don't go to waste
