This week you will get an inspiring success from Dr Barbara. Additionally, you will find 5 multiple-choice practice questions. Finally, you'll find out why I left the practical large animal exam crying and what to do to avoid the same mistakes that I did.

Meet Dr Barbara, a Veterinarian from Israel that is about to do the practical exam.

I love to share stories from other veterinarians as everyone has a different journey.

What caught my attention about her story is how quickly she prepared herself for the MCQ. Once again, I studied for 2 years for the MCQ, the reason being: I needed to work full time as I could not afford living in Australia otherwise and the exam got postponed 1 year due to COVID.

So let’s watch the video and I'll see you on the other side for the practice MCQ questions and Practical exam pearls of wisdom.
