I want to take pre veterinary medicine but I am VERY bad at chemistry
I am about to be a freshman in college and I am thinking about doing pre vet since I might want to go to vet school. I have always been interested in the veterinarian career and love biology/animals. However, I HATE chemistry! When I took chemistry a few years ago in high school I could hardly stand it! For some reason it was extremely difficult for me and I couldn't even find it interesting enough to study. It was one of my worst subjects in high school. The pre vet plan at my college includes a lot of chemistry, of course...general chemistry, biochem, organic chemistry. I am wondering if I should continue to pursue this career since I dislike the subject so much. I think that if I put forth enough effort to study (probably TONS AND TONS of studying..) I could do well in the classes, but should I even try vet school since I not only hate chemistry, but it's already proven to be one of my worst subjects?

If you really want anything , you should still go for it , I mean if you really really like this is your dream like if you really want to do this then do it ... I mean get a tutor and you will be fine, trust me the more you are studying it the less you will be so IRRITATED about it because you will be so use to it right... its like that movie ''blondie'' where she studied so hard she didnt want to but she did and she ended up becoming a lawyer... it shows you need to motivate yourself , you have to do it then you do it... dont just say oh no I HATE and DREAD this course.. there will always be courses like that , just because some.. get over it and do it and you will be a vet... trust me so what if theres a lot of studying its worth it.. it will make your life a lot easier later on it will pay off.. study now and trust me you will make lots of money and you will do what you love...
when I use to work at a banquet hall.. there was a veternary school graduates there was so many of them and they were so happy they got through all the courses hated and love and now they celebrated how they can become vets.. you should go for it!

I understand where you are coming from. I would love a career as a doctor or a chiropractor, but I am horrible at math and even worse at Chemistry. I barely passed that class, and it made me miserable.
Now if you are relatively good at the other requirements needed to be a vet, then you should try it. You will have to take Chemistry, but it won't be the most important class you take. You can get a tutor and work really hard at it, and I am sure you will pass. Don't let it hold you back.
If you are passionate about being a veternarian, then taking Chemistry and all the other difficult classes will be worth it.
Good luck,
