you dont need A levels for the course to become a vet nurse in Scotland you so however need either Highers ( our equivelant of a levels ) OR a pass in the 2 year course I linked to to get onto the DEGREE option.. we have a degree option and a non-degree option.. the degree option can be directly accessed immediately after the diploma as a further study option...
 both DO need a science as I said...

You need 5 A grade or higher GCSE's,
3 A levels at A or higher, which must include biology and chemistry its then a 5 year hons. with a year in work placement. Alltogether, after high school 7 years, if you pass the test first time round, and at £3,000 fees a year, and £3,000 maintenace roughly £42,000 of costs.

well we enquired about work experience ( at the reptile vets) and a lovely new male vet nurse talked us through everything he did.. it was so helpful....and it seems due to insurance related issues she may have to be 16 when she starts at a vets so it looks like its definately a PDSA etc voluterr position she would be looking at from age 14...
so she has another 2 years...

When you get into your sixth form college your tutors will explain all about how to apply to university - there is a system called UCAS, and it is through this system the majority of people who study degrees in the UK get their places at uni (unless they go to the open uni - which doesn't do vet science/medicine anyway)
When you are in your sixth form you look at courses such as vet6, these are aimed at students who what to apply to vet school, and they tell you about the stiff competition, a day in the life of a vet, work expereince required... Hope this helps

dont no if anyone else has said it, but you can do a Btech National Diploma animal management and get in that way through the gateway course (my best mate done it that way) you just need to have A gcse and pass the ND with DDD! - But i think it's harder to get in that way.
so you dont need to get conventunal a-levels to do it.. but it will make your life abit harder getting in if you go through the ND route. I want to be a vet, but im not smart enough, crap at maths and science.
