Hi all
I just graduated from college and am applying to opt schools this summer/fall for fall 2005. I have shadowed my optometrist a couple of times but I don't know if this is enough/how much shadowing I should do. I have been advised to shadow more but others have told me that it's not a big deal if i haven't shadowed a lot. My optometrist thinks that the couple times I went in to see her were fine. It's hard to get in with other opts to shadow them. Did any of you shadow at different types of practices..like commercial and private? My first choice is PCO so I dont know if they stress that or not when looking at applications. Thanks for your comments and suggestions!
