Veterinary
Licensure/Testing Information:
Each
veterinary medical school has a different test requirement. For example,
some colleges requires the
Graduate Record Examination (GRE) General Test. You want to
sign up early to ensure that you can take the test on your desired date.
There are no registration deadlines for the GRE General test, but
registration is first come, first served.
-A few DVM schools require the GRE
general test and the
Biology Subject test, which is only given three times each
year using paper and pencil. Some veterinary schools will accept the
Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) or the GRE. As of
April 2003, the VCAT test has been discontinued and therefore is not
required by any veterinary medical schools.
-For school specific information on testing, visit the
Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges list of Veterinary
Medical Schools and Colleges.
-Some Veterinary college will continue to accept VCAT scores
from the past four years. These details can be found at the
AAVMC (Association of American
Veterinary Medical Colleges) website.
