Any Vets on here? Really thinking about trying to go to Vet School. Is being a Vet as rewarding as one would think? Is it worth the debt from Vet School?

Not worth it
I'm going into human medicine myself, so I'm not incredibly knowledgeable about veterinary medicine, but I have had some contact with the pre-vet folks. My impression is that you will need a ton of experience working with animals as you apply to vet school. While med schools usually expect ~150 hours of clinical experience, the vet school applicants seem to be racking up thousands of hours.
If I were you, I'd look for opportunities to volunteer in a veterinary setting as soon as possible. That will give you access to current vets who can give you a better idea about the career, and it will get you started on the experience that you'll need for your application if you decide to go for it.
