Hello!
I'm starting to plan out my schedule in terms of taking the OAT and when I want all of my materials to be ready for app submission and I just had a few questions... hopefully someone can help me out :x
I'm planning on applying during the 2015-2016 cycle and I plan on taking the OAT in February or March so I want to start studying as soon as possible.. I'm also currently still in the process of taking a few more pre-requisite courses at community college but I have already graduated from a university. I want to take a Kaplan course (any suggestions as to which one? I'm not too great at self-studying and usually do better with some sort of formal instruction but I know that this is an important test so I know I will be more motivated to study). I have a break from school starting in mid December to around mid February, which I plan on using to study for the OAT. I want to take the test soon after that and I was just wondering if that's too late? But I'm also worried that the 2 months may not be enough time for me, especially since it's right in the middle of the holidays. So should I still plan on taking it in late Feb/March or should I postpone it longer? Also, I read on a couple forums that some schools don't accept scores if they are taken after March 1, is that true? I have my letters already so that's one less thing to worry about.. Am I missing anything? I'm also working at an opto office.
Any help/advice/words of wisdom would be truly appreciated, thank you!
