The big day has finally come.....tomorrow I sit for the National Veterinary Medical Licensing Examination. It's a little bit sickening to think one measly test (although, it is 6.5 hours long, so it's not too measly) but one measly test could prevent me from doing something I've prepared my entire life to do. :( Of course, I could always retake it if I had to.....but that would suck on multiple levels.

It will test my knowledge of medicine/husbandry on:
:dog:
:cat:
:cow:
:sheep (and goats!)-don't know these so well
:turkey: :ducky: (and other birds)-not great at these either; I have a working knowledge of pet birds though
pig: - I've been hearing there's alot of pig questions and pig disease are annoying and confusing and I know nothing about them despite studying
:bunny: and other exotic critters like ferrets and reptiles

I'm sure the above is all fairly obvious, I mean what else would I be tested on...I just couldn't resist using the smilies! And, there should be a HORSE smiley, I will most definitely encounter a few of those! :crazy:

So wish me luck, cross your fingers, pray, rub two nickels together....do whatever it is that you do to wish me luck!

Ugh....time to go to bed.

Good Luck :wave:

Good luck, Bootsy McWoosherson!

And sure, those animals you listed up there are all fine and dandy, but didn't they teach you anything about :grady:?

If they don't test you with any :grady: questions, then I have to wonder wtf is running this crackjob exam in the first place.

Congrats on making it this far.

Best Of Luck To You!

Good luck!!!!!

Have my fingers crossed and praying you do well. Good Luck and thanx for wanting to take care of animals!!!!:wave:

Good luck. :)

Good luck!! :)

Good Luck! - we need more people taking good care of our animal friends :)

Good luck to you! I hope you pass the test! :D

I bet you'll do great!! We'll have to start calling you Dr. Bootsy. :D

Good luck! :cool:

You're going to do great!

Good Luck :)

Good luck Bootsy! Our pets are depending on you! Let us know how the exam goes!

I've been cheering you on for a long time now. Don't let me down...

No pressure. :)

Do they really have that many rubber duckies (:ducky: )that come into vet offices?

Anyhow good luck, I hope all goes well.

Do they really have that many rubber duckies (:ducky: )that come into vet offices?

They didn't have any :ducky: doctors in the town I grew up in. The demand is so great, but it takes a person with much skill and excellent bed-side-manor to live up to this field.

It is a noble endeavor Bootsy is striving for... Ducky Doctor!

Good luck!! Thats a pretty long test. Get some rest and relax!

i'm a little late.. but Good Luck!!!
