Hello my name is Becca! I have been tutoring for the MCAT, PCAT and OAT for about six years now, most of that time through Kaplan test prep teaching their large courses, live online, summer intensive and private tutoring and mentoring. I also worked for Next Step Test Prep as a tutor and...

Does anyone know how long it takes for offical OAT scores to be sent to schools you selected? I wrote October 7th. I sent unofficial scores to a couple of the schools I applied to, but they said they need official scores to proceed w/ interviews. Thanks

Hi! I'm planning out my OAT study plan (I plan to officially start studying in December). I can handle doing physically extraneous tasks for a long period of time, but mentally, after 2 hours my brain won't be able to recall/remember information. It's a great thing to know that about myself as...

Let me start off by saying I studied a lot for this exam. My only two sources of studying were the Kaplan self-paced course and Chad's videos. I subscribed to Chad's videos 3 weeks before the OAT mainly for Gen Chem and Organic. Both of these sources (Kaplan and Chad's) are great and will...

My test is this Monday. With the limited time I have left, would you guys suggest purchasing OAT Achiever to stimulate more test-like environment or should I continue studying from the OAT destroyer (2nd time over)/Chad's/Kaplan. I did take 2 of the Kaplan tests that came with the book and my...

Hi you guys! I retake the OAT on Monday, and I wanted to give you all an overview of my experience. The first time I took the OAT, I didn't study the way I should have. My scores were terrible! I didn't take a course and just used the Kaplan book and Princeton book. I really struggled with...

Just curious to know if anyone opted for the "Professional Transcript Entry" through Optomcas? I had a few transcripts to add due to transferring so I figured it would be easier to have it complied by Optomcas... but its been awhile since I requested the transcripts through the website and I was...

On the 2017 OAT topics list, I don't see magnetism under Physics. Is it safe to say that I won't be seeing this topic on the test?

I took the OAT today (9/18/2017) and did better than I thought would have. Actual OAT scores in order of which they are tested: "Standard Score (Percentile)" BIO:_____ 400(99) Total Science:_______ 400(99) GChem:__ 400(99) Academic Average:___ 390(99) OChem:__ 380(94) RComp:__...

Just took the OAT exam A disappointed for bio and orgo.. bio i wish i had done a bit better. Orgo, i had a feeling i wouldn't do so well in. QR: 360 RC: 350 Bio: 290 GC: 380 Orgo: 290 Physics: 310 TS: 320 AA: 330 Will the two low scores hurt my chances? Will it be asked about? I have a 3.2...

So, I am applying within the next week-two week and super nervous. My GPA isn't the best, and re-taking my OAT's in December, (but applying before I retake and just sending them over when finished). So I was wondering what everyone's GPA and OAT scores were that got an interview so I can compare...

Just a question regarding evaluations on optomcas, are these the reference letters or are they a separate component. If it is a separate component, do we need to get different people to write the reference letters than those who did the evaluation component? Also, does anyone know what the...

Hello Everyone, This is a stupid question, but since it's my first time I was hoping you could help me out. I am about to send my request to my evaluators for LOR and have a couple questions 1) I am assuming that if they complete and send the LOR then I will get a notification that it has been...

I could use as much help as I can get, thanks everyone!! So, I'm currently in my last year in my undergrad in Ontario,Canada and my GPA isn't the absolute best.. but could be worse. I am planning on applying to Optometry school this year for the September 2018 year, and I know the registration...

Does anyone know how to do this? There were two courses specifically (Physiology and Anatomy) that I plan to take in the future, depending on if the school I get accepted to requires those courses. How would I add this to my application? Thanks!

I was reading posts from earlier this year in both the dental and optometry forums and people claim to have come across geometry/trig on their exam, despite ADA saying they removed it. But when I read later posts like from this summer, people say they didn't come across any. For those of you...

I live in So-flo and my university closed until further notice due to Irma. So, I'm happy about that lol Then, it hits me "what if a storm comes around next summer and hits on the day I take the OAT" because I'm just so unlucky with exam days (had car accidents, hospital visits, another storm in...

Hey guys! I figured I'll start a thread for those of us applying to IAUPR this cycle:) Applying to grad schools can be hella stressful but hopefully we can help each other out through the process:)

Hey guy! So I retook some classes to help my GPA, but I'm a little worried that it will be a red flag and not even get me an interview:( My GPA is around 3.0 for both overall and science (including the retakes). Is there anyone here that is in a similar situation? Or anyone who received...

Hey guys! So I came across an OAT study guide that I found online and it said that some schools weigh the OAT more heavily than GPA. I understand that all aspects of an application is important but I was just curious since I'm going to be applying this cycle. Do you guys know any schools that...

Hi everyone, I've been a casual observer for a while. However I am stuck in a dilemma and so I made this account to seek for advice. Tomorrow marks the first day of my senior year as an undergrad. My target is to apply to the College of Optometry of the University of Houston for this current...

After reading other threads and FAQs I am still very confused about the OAT portion of my application, and the people at OptomCAS have left me hanging for a long time as well. I took my OAT last year and chose 5 schools to send the scores to. Two schools I am applying to now were not a part of...

Hi all! Quick question: is Young's double split experiment stuff on the exam? The physics section in the Kaplan 2016 prep book barely had one paragraph on it, and didn't talk about any equations like dsin(theta)=m(wavelength) Thanks!

I am 2 weeks away from taking my OAT. I have been using chad's videos and OAT destroyer. I took a practice OAT test using TOP SCORE to see where I stand. my results: BIO 260/ OCHEM 350/ GCHEM 320/ RC 320/ PHY 250 / QR 300 I did poorly in the bio and physics section. I am trying to understand...

I'm taking my OAT in the middle of September, but was going to submit my OptomCAS after taking the exam. So hopefully by the end of September, everything will be turned in. Is this too late? I feel like I'm a bit behind compared to everyone else

Hi everyone, So I'm taking my OAT exam in 5 weeks, and have been primarily using Chad's videos/quizzes, the fat Kaplan Strategies book, and Kaplan MCAT Biology review for preparation. I had three questions regarding to preparation: 1. Does anyone know how Chad's questions compare to the real...

Hi all, I just took my OAT this afternoon and I did not score what I was hoping for. My scores were AA: 300 TS: 290. Looking back on it, I thought the test went fairly well, but I was a tad disappointed to see that I scored a 290 in Biology and a 260 in Physics, while scoring a 300 or higher...

Hi, I'm a rising Junior and I am starting the preparation for OAT. Some have told me that there's a slight correction between people who performed well in the SAT/ACT and people who performed well with the OAT. I want to see if anyone who did well on the OAT also did well when they took the...

Hi! I am currently studying for the OAT. If I am not mistaken, in the QR section, they give you an on screen calculator that has very limited functions. Does this mean that we have to memorize odd trig functions such as sin(57) or tan^-1(5/3)? Thanks!

Hey guys! Taking my OAT for the first time in September... SO nervous. Currently enrolled in a Kaplan online course, and have been using Chads vids as supplementary material. I haven't really been able to get a good gauge on what/which equations for physics are the ones I need to be focussing on...

I just took the OAT and did worse than I expected. I scored a 310 TS and 310 AA with zero sections below 300. My cGPA is around a 3.45, sGPA 3.1. I have pretty good extracurricular activities including many different clubs/organizations (some of which I have held leadership positions), 100 hours...

Hi , I'm planning on writing my OAT late August. However, text anxiety is definitely kicking in and making me anxious about it. I'm going to 3rd year and not applying till next summer, would it be best to wait and write it next summer? Do schools care about the number of times you've written it...

Hi all, I am in the process of applying in the next cycle of admissions and noticed a question in one of the applications and it asks what other schools I'm applying to. Is there any impact on my chances in getting into that school if I'm applying to 8? The reason is due to my cumulative gpa...
