The highest is about $120,000/year. That takes a lot of years of experience though. Also, you have to actually make it into Vet school which is harder then Med school because (at least at NCSU), getting accepted is based on GPA and only 300 a year get in — so you basically have to have a 4.0.

I’m guessing a lot like the user above me said, but vet school is tougher than say medicine because for vet studies you have to learn about more than one species so it takes longer.
