There may be no vet schools in Hong Kong, but that shouldn't stop you from pursuing a career which brings out the kindness in you

Requirements: A veterinarian has to be an animal lover who cares about the welfare of animals.

They need to enjoy what they are doing. They should also have good communication skills because some of their clients may be very worried about their sick pet.

A vet should be patient and caring while explaining the situation to pet owners.

Qualifications: To become a vet, you have to be good at science subjects, especially biology and chemistry. Students with good A-level results in those two subjects have a better chance of getting into vet schools.

There are no such schools in Hong Kong so students often go to Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand or Britain.
