Every veterinary medicine student will encounter an academic challenge, and the team at Kansas State University is well aware of this. Your interviewers want to know that you will handle these difficulties with as much emotional intelligence and poise as possible.

"When I have encountered academic difficulty in the past, I have recognized the issue early and approached my professor for additional information or study resources. With these resources, I will either increase the time spent reviewing the class material or engage another person to increase my understanding of the topic. For instance, during my biophysical chemistry class this year, I fell behind as we approached the subject of molecular interactions. I know I will encounter many new and unfamiliar things as a veterinary student, and I would use this same approach at Kansas State University."

Before your interview with the Kansas State University college of veterinary medicine, consider this question. Perhaps you reach out to other students when you encounter difficulties in your academic studies. Maybe you talk to your professors or engage a tutor to help you better understand the material. Discuss how you will approach a situation like this during veterinary school at KSU. If this approach has benefitted you in the past, this is a great time to mention that.
