Lesson 2 I AM A STUDENT OF THE STATE ACADEMY
OF VETERINARY MEDICINE

This year I left the secondary school. My favorite subjects were mathematics and biology. But first of all I was interested in animals and their life.

In summer I passed my entrance examinations to the Saint-Petersburg State Academy of Veterinary Medicine. The Academy is a higher medical school which trains specialists for different branches of veterinary medicine. To enter the Academy I passed entrance examinations in biology, chemistry (physics) and the Russian language. As I passed them successfully I was admitted to the Academy. Now I am a first-year student.
I study at the day department of the Academy. Besides, there are a correspondence department and an evening department in the Academy too. I entered the State Academy of Veterinary Medicine because my dream was to become a veterinary surgeon and help animals suffering from different diseases.

I am not from St. Petersburg. I am from Petrozavodsk. There is no higher veterinary institute there and I came to St.Petersburg to get a higher medical veterinary education. I decided to enter this Academy because it is one of the best higher veterinary schools not only in St.Petersburg but in the whole Russia. I have no relatives in the city and now I live in the hostel. My hostel is located on Novo-Izmaylovsky prospect. It is not very convenient and modern. But it has all the necessary facilities. There are two students in my room. They are from different towns of Russia and also came to St.Petersburg to study at our Academy. We are rather friendly and always prepare our home tasks together. And when we have free time on the week-end we often go to the cinema or theatre, exhibitions or museums or wander along the streets of the city admiring its beauty. I am very happy that I have entered the Academy. It is very interesting to study here, though not easy.
