Oh man those days seem like they were just YESTERDAY! I guess my only advice at this point for you is to study hard and apply EARLY. A lot of my premed friends waited until the last minute, and I think it hurt some of them when interview time came. On the other hand, I came out pretty well and I do believe some of it came from being the "early bird".
And, since you brought it up, I have comment on the fact that you wanted to be a vet. Medical school, or the medical field in general really, is way too difficult and insane to be a back-up profession! I know vets who get allergy shots and use nasal sprays for their allergies. If that's what is truly in your heart you should do it. I hope that didn't come off the wrong way. Just some food for thought...
