How old is th eyoungest veterinarian since i want to be a vet when i am 18?
In the United States, you have to take a minimum of three years of undergraduate classes followed by four years of vet school. Even if you can get all the undergraduate classes finished during high school and are accepted to vet school on your first application, you won't have a vet degree until you are 21. Also, many vet schools are likely to reject your application because you don't have the time to get the experience and references you need to successfully apply straight out of vet school. In practice, the youngest you could become a veterinarian in the United States is 24. Graduate from high school at 17, spend 3 years in undergraduate and then 4 years in vet school.
What college classes can you take your senior year in high school to become a vet?
You can take AP Chemistry, AP Biology, AP Physics, AP Calculus or similar courses, but this will only count towards your undergraduate college classes. In the United States, you have to complete at least three years' worth of undergraduate college classes and then take another four years of classes in vet school.

In vet school, you can and should take as many equine-focused electives as you can, or you can sign up for the equine track (in the vet schools that track).
What classes do you need to take in high school to get ready for vet school?
Specific high school courses will have little to do with becoming a veterinarian. You will need good grades to enable you to get into college and good grades there in order to get into vet school. For entry into a pre-vet program, you should focus on the sciences, especially chemistry and biology. Once in college, you should expect a mix of biology, chemistry, math courses to dominate your schedule. Ask your advisor to help you design a path for your journey to vet school. Work hard, because vet school is not for the faint of heart!
