I'm pretty stoked! Just got an email stating my application is verified and being sent off to my program. I am only applying to SCO (since I have family in Memphis, and would really appreciate the break in living expenses!)
I am in my early 30's with an undergraduate degree in Business, and completed all the required prerequisites recently. Total GPA 3.39, but my more recent optometry prerequisite coursework is much higher than my business undergrad coursework from ten years ago.
Sitting for the OAT October 1, and I hope I will be competitive enough to get an interview at SCO! I'm pretty sure that if I can get an interview, I can sell myself as a good candidate. I have about five years of optometry office experience as a licensed optician, and nine years of retail management experience.
Are there any other folks out there with a business management background besides me?
