The metrics for their students are crucial for any college of veterinary medicine, and this rings true at Kansas State University. To seriously consider you for admission into their program, your interviewers want to ensure that you will be diligent in your studies and perform well. They ask this question to see how successfully you prepare for exams and will continue to do so throughout their program.

"I am an organized student and have come up with a plan that works very well for me when preparing for exams. I like to 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; 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, and I'm confident it will aid me greatly during veterinary school."

Perhaps you create your own study aids. Maybe you prefer to prepare for exams in a group setting. Whatever your approach, take the time to walk the interviewers through your process with as much detail as possible. Make sure to discuss how your approach led to success during your undergraduate program and will continue to do so as a veterinary student at KSU.
