Sorry if this page gets a lot of questions like this, but I’m wondering how transferable and valuable skills acquired in veterinary labs and practice are when applying to an MLS program? I just applied to the 4+1 program through the Cleveland clinic and I’m really worried about getting in since I’ve heard it’s pretty competitive.

I graduated last year with a degree in animal science and equine science and was on a prevet path. I have clinical veterinary lab experience and 2 years in veterinary parasitology with 2 published papers. Will the reviewers take this lab experience into consideration when reviewing my application? I had a 3.6 overall gpa in college but about 3.00 over science and math classes. I’ve been applying to every volunteer and shadowing opportunity for human clinical labs to try to be more competitive but it’s really difficult, I’m wondering if I should just wait and see if I get in…
