Hey there! Well I'm Ollie, from London. Nice to virtually meet you and all that lark! *shakes hand* I want to be a vet and hoping to go to university next year so if anyone whats to chat about veterinary medicine and subjects surrounding it then I'll be happy Well, I'll chat about anything scientific really...i'm not that fussy! Talk to you later ! Ollie x:D

Anyone out there wanting to become a vet in the future? Or work in the veterinary profession for that matter. Thought it would be good to chat about experiences, what you've done to try and get into university, what motivates you and such like. It would be good to talk cause in the long run it will help us all to understand and listen to other peoples ideas... well i think anyway! Well, i suppose that i should start! lol Well, from as far back as I can remember, I have always wanted to be a vet. And due to that I've done lots of work experience with animals, working on farms, and in a veterinary practice. Its my ideal profession and I really Really want to do it! I'm doing biology, chemistry and history at A-level and I did physics last year too. My applications to my uni's were sent off a while ago and I've got an interview for the Royal Veterinary College in a week and a half! Really excited about that. Woooo! How are the rest of you getting on. Ollie

Hey, I've been doing some research for my application to university about stem cells and I've struggled to find much about the actual procedures that are carried out on animals by veterinary surgeons. I know that there are techniques that are used on animals for injuries such as breaking tendons...a Anybody know anthing more? Also, do you think its ethically correct to start stem cell lines? Ollie
