Dear Vet Student,

I’m writing today to send you best wishes and good luck! After years of veterinary education, and several months of studying, you are about to take the most important exam of your life, the NAVLE!

I’ve been where you are. I know you may be feeling overwhelmed, stressed out and even a little scared. But rest assured, you will survive!

I promise that you know more than you think you know. You didn’t make it this far by accident or sheer luck! You have worked your tail off, maybe using our VetPrep Navle study prep, and you have earned the opportunity to sit for the exam. Be confident!

In 2015 and 2014, over 90% of students who took the NAVLE for the first time during the November/December test window passed the exam. There is no reason this can’t be you!
