Hey everyone, I'm seeking some advice from someone that's been in the same boat as me (or close). I've got my bachelors in audiology from te univ of TN .. Long story short, I love the field but it's entirely too small and gives me no flexibility as far as job openings etc. I applied to 6 AUD programs last yr but didn't get in and the more research I do on job placements the more negative feedback i get. I've shadowed OT's in the past few months and I love it .. I just wanted some advice from people on what to do next.
Location; Id like to be in the Chicago area .. Anyone go to school there? Stats? Competitive?
Gpa: 2.9
I know my gpa is very low and all my extra volunteer and work experience is in audiology. I do meet most Reqs for OT but I feel I should go back ro get my gpa way higher
GRE: 960 writing :4
Probably need to retake this again(took it 2 times already)
Are there any schools/post baccs I could do to bring up my application? I realize that i don't have much time to apply for the 2013 cycle bc I'd probably need to take some more classes so I can basically spend a year getting my app up to par. Help? Suggestions? Thanks everyone
