abstract
The personal attributes of veterinary students influence both their educational outlook and their career aspirations. In this study, five variables related to the personal profile of veterinary students at Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University in Gujarat were examined. The students’ mean age was 20 years. Half of the participants (50.3 per cent) belonged to upper or non-reserved caste groups, and 57.5 per cent originated from rural backgrounds. A total of 41.5 per cent had achieved first-class academic performance or maintained a strong scholastic record. Overall, students demonstrated a notably low level of involvement in extracurricular activities.
