Pursing Veterinarian career path

Question
First and for most Id like to just say thank you for taking the time to read this and this has nothing to do with a pet that I need help with. Just more of a you could say interview, helping me acknowledge what is best and expect our of picking Veterinarian science as a career and lifestyle.
Hi, I am a college freshman taking general biology this semester. I have a passion for helping animals. Im currently flunking the actual coarse and I feel as if Im not cut out for this major.I wanted to know if you had ever gone thru a stubble in the road and felt as if your making the wrong choice. If you did what bumps did you smooth out and how?
Is it just easier to take a pre-vet. coarse ?
Are there other majors that you could take instead of Biology?
What are the types of education you need in order to actually practice in a clinic?

Thank you again.

1. You need perfect spelling to get into veterinary college as the competition is very hard.
2. We all have bumps. Sometimes it means you need a different path, sometimes it means you just need to work harder. Freshman year can be a challenge.
3. since I went to veterinary college 35 years ago, you need current, up to date information from the veterinary college itself. for other possible careers, consult your guidance counselor.
4. You need a doctor of veterinary medicine to have a license to practice in a veterinary clinic.
