What is the vet tech degree called?
An associates degree or associates of applied sciences degree in veterinary technology in the US.
Could you have c's and still be a vet?
Yes some vet schools do a foundation year for students who got c's at A-level. These courses are called 'gateway' or 'foundation' courses, and you do an extra year before starting the actual vet course where they catch you up with the people who got a's. Another option is doing a vet science degree before doing a vet medicine degree, so you end up with 2 degrees at the end of it all. After doing a vet science degree many vet schools have an accelerated vet medicine course where you only have to do 4 years more to become a vet.

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.
