What can you do with a pre-vet degree if you don't get into vet school?

Nothing. This is why most pre-vet majors have a second major in a related field such as Biology or chemistry. If vet school doesn't work out (which happens more often than not), the second major allows the student to find work with a BS in a major science.

Can you get into a good veterinary school with just a degree in biology or do they specifically want a pre-veterinary program degree?
Yes, you are just as competitive on your application with a biology degree as anyone else with a pre-vet degree. Actually, you may have a slight edge over someone with just a pre-vet degree, as the biology degree shows foresight and probably a Plan B if you aren't accepted to vet school on your first try. A Pre-Vet degree is useless unless you are accepted to vet school.

Does a vet tech degree go toward a d.v.m?
In the United States, the courses you complete to earn a BS in veterinary technology could partially complete the pre-requisite courses needed to apply to vet school. However, the vet tech courses cannot be directly substituted for courses in vet school - the degree of difficulty and depth of information need are much greater for veterinarians than for vet techs.
How many years of school will you attend after high school to become a vet?
At a minimum, 7 years - 3 years of undergraduate plus 4 years of vet school. However, most applicants to veterinary school have earned a Bachelor's degree (4 years of undergraduate) and some have also completed a Master's degree (another 2-4 years, depending on degree and program).
Can you be a veterinarian at 25?
no, you cannot be a veterinarian at 25 because you need 4 years of an undergraduate degree (if you start right after high school, you will be getting this degree from ages 18-22, and then vet medical school from 22-26). So you can't be a vet at 25.
