Hi,
I am trying to get some feedback about my qualifications for optometry school. I have recently taken my OAT and did not do very well, making a 290. Here are some other statistics about my academics:
Undergraduate GPA: 3.5
Undergraduate science GPA: 3.3
Masters in Biochemistry with Thesis
Graduate GPA: 3.99
My extracurricular activity portion of my application is well distributed in multiple areas.
After Undergrad, I chose to do research in graduate school first and then attend a professional school but with my OAT as low as it is, I am not sure what my chances are. I do plan on taking it again but have some test anxiety issues. I have used several study aids to brush up on some basic bio/gen chem/etc which have not been used or thought of since I took those classes.
Any advice about studying for the OAT? Improving my application? or advice in general?
Thanks.
