Yes, it’s a risk if she does not test well, but the tests are not a direct indicator of future success, merely a predictor. DD in med school regularly scores better in class than her friend whose MCAT was over 25% higher. The test is just a test. If your DD can score whatever the recommended required score is AND can be interesting with great LORs and a solid GPA & excellent Vet related ECs, there is no reason why she cannot get into vet school. If that is her passion, she ought to go for it.
