You do not know exactly where you will be in five years. Still, you should be about to assure the Admissions Committee at the University of Missouri that, given all possible circumstances, you see yourself working in the field of veterinary medicine for the long term.
Perhaps you want to seek a leadership opportunity, open a private practice, or start a community initiative that benefits animals. Maybe you have specific goals related to your continued education or professional development. Alternatively, with the advancements in technology and medicine that are happening today, perhaps you'd like to talk about the research and ideas you feel will contribute to the ever-evolving animal science industry.

"In five years, I see myself continually learning about animal medicine from a senior veterinarian in a private animal clinic or an animal hospital setting. In addition to my daily work, I envision contributing to a reputable not-for-profit animal charity or initiative in my community. Perhaps this means sitting on an advisory board or being hands-on and helping raise funds for an animal initiative. Overall, I want to be considered a valuable asset to my community by leveraging my academic knowledge to educate others about proper animal care and empower people to treat animals the way they deserve to be treated."
