Answer 8

a good idea would be to go to your local vet and ask if they will take you on for the practical side,  which would look good when you apply to college.  again i think it is a long course with a lot of exams to pass.  you will need to be dedicated to animals as this type of job is not 9am  to  5pm.  the vet might even suggest a suitable course at a local college which might fit in with working for him.

enrolement at the colleges start soon so you quickly need to check the prospectus.  

good luck and happy studying.

Answer 9

You can do any career you want to do at any age.

Go for It!

Answer 10

Of course you can, no reason why you can't train later in life. I want to be a vet assistant too! Good luck!

Answer 11

Course you could.  You'd have to check with the college about what qualifications they accept (minimum grades, subjects etc) or you could go as a mature student.  Good luck with it and hope you enjoy your new career path :)
