I have learnt a lot about medicine and how the world has a famous sheep and there is a royal museum This is a great taster course in order to get a realistic insight into what a course in Veterinary Medicine is actually like.
For me personally this taster course has further reaffirmed my dream of studying Veterinary Medicine at the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies which I have applied for this year.
Gre So great but I found the last module about history of veterinary medicine overly long and boring The tests are kind of hard but they are qualified and educational.
good cource but its medical content about how to treat disease is low and needed to be more and clinical cases is low also but another topics is very good Hello, good day you have:I think it is an excellent course because it gives us a very broad about what is the career of Veterinary Medicine scene.
I learned much about myself and have a clearer picture around whether a career in veterinary medicine would still be a good fit for me.
Given the circumstances, of course, it touches "only" the basics, but even so it allows you to gain useful knowledge and a glimpse at what it's like to study veterinary medicine.
I studied Veterinary medicine but this course added a lot to my knowledge .

so much
have learnt so much about veterinary science and about the course in Edinburgh.
This course has so much valuable information to offer in the course of a few short weeks!
The course is uneven at best, with some modules providing insights and knowledge and others not so much.
It is so much more than just a love for animals.
It was rigorous enough that I felt like I was really learning about animal anatomy and physiology and veterinary care, but not so much so that I couldn't keep up.
Thank you so much for all this information and thank you for inspiring me even more to pursue the career I have always wanted!

animal care
I found this course really interesting and useful; a good range of topics were covered, from animal care to the setup of a successful veterinary consultation.
it's a intersting class A great course for anyone thinking of going into any area of veterinary science or animal care.
It provides a few introductory lectures about animal care, anatomy, clinical activity and history, which are fairly interesting, but I would have appreciated more if aspiring students would have been shown about some more difficult sides of the profession (the emotional investment in the patients, the ethical conflicts, the balance between animal welfare and owner's economic capabilities).
I took it out of curiosity, as I'm already in the profession, and I'm on the fence about this rating.It provides a few introductory lectures about animal care, anatomy, clinical activity and history, which are fairly interesting, but it also leaves out all the difficult sides of the profession (which I think aspiring students _needs_ to know about beforehand).
