Christian from Columbus, OH
The classes I am currently taking require you to remember alot of information. Im in the Veterinary Technician program and we learn how to handle animals and take care of them to the best of our ability. Even if your not going into the Vet Tech field, it is alot of work in any field and you have to pay attention in your classes.
Melissa from Cutler, OH
As an adult student returning to college after many years I was pleased to find an atmosphere that has helped me to excel in my classes.
