If you do a bachelor in biology and then go to veterinary school when the pre-veterinary?

A bachelor's degree in biology is excellent preparation for veterinary school. It fulfills the pre-veterinary requirements at most institutions. However, it's not the *pre-veterinary* program itself. A pre-veterinary program is not a specific degree, but rather a *curriculum* that you follow within a broader degree (like biology, zoology, animal science, etc.). This curriculum ensures you take the necessary courses required for application to veterinary school.

So, to clarify:

* Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Biology: This is a degree program. You would carefully select your electives and required courses to meet the pre-veterinary prerequisites.

* Pre-veterinary curriculum: This is a collection of courses (e.g., biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, animal science, possibly anatomy & physiology) you complete within your B.S. program to make you a competitive applicant for veterinary school.

In short: you get a biology degree *while* completing the pre-veterinary requirements. The biology degree is the broader framework; the pre-vet curriculum is the specific path within it.
