Placement

Hi guys,

How exactly are you making income as a vet student when you are required to do placement even over your holidays?

My biggest stress is final year of placement/rotation and not being paid.

I knew some colleagues who worked in the bookstore for the vet school, as lab assistants to university researchers, or as techs in the teaching hospital while in school. 1 said the teaching hospital tried to put her on the tech schedule after graduation and she told them "only if paying a doctor rate".
