Communication Skills & Attributes
11 Lessons

Lesson 4
Organisation & Time Management
Vet School can be a difficult time and universities want to make sure you’re able to cope with the pressure. They want to see how you organise yourself and manage your time.

Lesson 5

Veterinary Ethics ⚖️
7 Lessons
In this section we tackle the hardest part of the interview – Veterinary Ethics. Veterinary ethics comprises a huge part of the degree, and a lot of this subject depends on your own views as often there is no ‘correct’ answer.
Tutorials
Lesson 1
Veterinary Ethics: Introduction
this lesson aims to give you an introduction to the types of ethical issues that veterinarians face, and to help you approach any questions you may be asked on ethics for your interview. Do not worry if you are faced with an ethical predicament that you have not seen before in an interview are unsure of.
Lesson 2
Justifying your Ethical Reasoning
The main focus of an ethical question when presented with one at an interview is not whether you gave the ‘correct’ answer, or whether the examiner agrees with what they believe to be true. What you are really being assessed on here is your ability to rationalise and justify a point, whilst giving a balanced argument.
