Am I a good applicant for the optometry program?

I've got a GPA of about 3.3, shadowed 3 optometrists (about 30 hours total), and am currently studying for the OAT. I don't have that great of a resume in college due to my lack of extracurriculars if I'm being honest but is a decent GPA and OAT score enough to get interviews at least?

Programs seem to put an emphasis on OAT and GPA mostly but I just want to make sure my lack of experience in the optometry field wouldn't hinder my chances with an OAT of like 300.

You would have a good shot in most schools besides Berkley. That school will look for high OAT scores. For most schools with your gpa you should be fine as long as your OAT is average.
