I agree with all the well-spoken posters re d’s potential and the need for sibs to recognize this “golden opportunity to keep their mouths shut”. The working life of a pharmacist is so vastly different than that of a vet, I don’t think makes sense as an alternative. Pharmacy would be torture for someone without a strong interest. Best of luck to the daughter. She sounds like a lovely (and accomplished) kid.
BTW, veterinary medicine was my first childhood ambition. Eventually I became a pediatric nurse practitioner - similar in that lots of my patients can’t speak.
