Animal Science BS, Was it BS?
I am entering my senior year of college and finishing out my animal science degree on a pre-vet track, but due to a variety of circumstances, largely due to family influence and severe depression, my grades are not even close to what they need to be. I think in the best case I will finish school with a little bit over a 3.3GPA and a likely lower science GPA, but this is with some class retakes that won't go away on my final application. The dream has always been vet school, but I'm not very confident that it's in the cards for me anymore, and I am looking for a different path. I just feel so lost because it has been the only thing that has kept me going when times got rough. I dedicated so much time to it and have spent so much time collecting hours and experience. I even hold a job at my university's prestigious teaching hospital, but it all feels like the last few years have been for nothing. So, now looking into other careers, I feel so limited by my degree; it seems to be specific enough for most fields in the agricultural business and too specific for others. Now I'm just left with regret, wishing I had studied something like communications or finance that has a wider breadth of opportunities and job types. Maybe I'm closed-minded, but I am just unaware of alternative paths and feel like I wasted 4 years and lots of my parent's money. If anyone has any advice, I'd greatly appreciate it.
