The greater your academic performance during veterinary school, the better Auburn University's metrics will be. For this reason, your interviewers want to choose veterinary medicine students who will be diligent in their studies and perform well on exams. They ask this question to hear you directly talk about your approach to preparing for and succeeding in your exams.

"I am a well-organized student and have created a plan that works well for me. When I prepare for an exam, I map out the content I need to learn and divide that content over the number of days I have to prepare. When I create a study calendar, I leave the final three days leading up to the exam to review the entire library of content. I am a big fan of study aids, as they work much better than simply reading and re-reading the materials. Aids such as flashcards are also much more helpful than highlighting my notes. I also create practice problems and, when possible, will pair up with a fellow student to test each other in written form or verbal lightning rounds. My approach has been successful, as reflected in my overall GPA during my undergraduate program."

Perhaps you create your own study aids. Maybe you prefer to prepare for exams in a group setting. Whatever your approach, walk the interviewers through your process with as much detail as possible. Be sure to highlight how this approach has helped you through your high school and undergraduate programs and what you learned along the way to help improve your ability to master exams.
