So amazing news!!! I just got invited for a Bristol interview! This is amazing news, especially after my disappointing day yesterday. I'm SO EXCITED!!! It's the best feeling EVER.
Okay I should calm down though...
In this post I was supposed to tell you about where all I applied and I'm sure you gathered from the first few lines, the University of Bristol is one of them.
Let's start from my own country though.
India has two main ways you can get into a government veterinary college. I'm not even considering any private colleges because their degree will probably not be recognized. Anyway, one is through the AIPVT or All India Pre-Veterinary Test and the other is through your state's veterinary exam which you are eligible for only if you have a domicile for the state.
Basically I'm going to be applying for both and my top choices based on a lot of research are-
1) Lala Lajpat Rai University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Hisar
2) Bombay Veterinary College
3) Madras Veterinary College
6) Rajasthan University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Bikaner
Then, as a second option I've applied to the United Kingdom but I would prefer to remain in India since it's closer, better for UG and doesn't put as much of a strain on the pocket.
However I've applied to the following Universities in UK-
1) University of Nottingham
2) University of Edinburgh
3) University of Bristol
4) University of Glasgow

and as a 5th choice (UCAS only allows 4 veterinary medicine choices)
5) Imperial College, London (Biology)
While I would absolutely love to go abroad for undergrad, one year's fee there is more than all the living expenses I'd have to pay for my five years in India.
If I could get a full scholarship to UK I would go in a heartbeat but I'm not disappointed with being in India either.

It's pretty much a win-win situation if I get into any of these colleges by this time next year. I'll be on my way to my dream!
Hopefully more good news to come,
