My marks aren't the hottest, and I haven't written the OATs yet...so I'm wondering what the easiest optometry school to get accepted to is. I don't really care where I go, I just want to get in somewhere.

you may want to try and strengthen other areas of your application, like LORs and shadowing exp. i do not think there is an easy school but it all depends on what you have to offer.

Based on the 2004 statistics, Puerto Rico's optometry school is one of the easiest to get into:
The site below is pretty good. It gives you a lot of info. You might want to pay close attention to the acceptance rate of in-state and out of state applicants. The school in my state is private, but still accepted 40% more in-state applicants than out of state applicants.
