 Most Popular Majors: Not reported

 My major is going to be a science Veterinarian because I want to help hurt animals and check their body system if it good. Why do I want to be a veterinarian? Well… I like animals a lot and I want to take care of them like a family member.  I will try my hardest in every class since I need strong skills to make it into vet school. I have to Take as many science, math, and biology courses. I will Volunteer or intern at a local animal shelter, vet's office, clinic, zoo, stable, farm, or research lab. Get as much hands-on experience with animals as possible.

I want to go to UBC because it’s a good university. And it could help me to be a veterinary

My second reason is that I they have a lot of classes and you can learn a lot in class. And this university has a lot of sports.

They have a lot of sports that you can participate in any kind of sports. And majors that you can participate in.

I can try my best in class so I can study more about my dream job I wanted to be.

And after I graduate I can study more on my dream job as a veterinary.
