eh it depends mainly on how many schools you apply to. varies even more if you take in to account interview expenses.
The OAT is $199.
The Kaplan books are like 40 dollars at books a million. (Although I bought the same edition I got at books a million on half.com for 2 dollars)
The Kaplan course is rather pricey, I don't personally think it's necesary but if you do take it try to find one of there $200 dollar off coupons. 🙂
here are the links to the app fees for all the schools. average is like 50 sum buckaroos

sending transcripts from schools...depends on price...and how many colleges, JCs you might have attended in HS and post Undergrad...anywhere from free to $10/each school.
Send OAT score to each school is $25/school..you get 5 free ones if you select the schools at the same time as signing up for the OAT
if your college has a letter of recommendation service and all your LORs are there, there is likely a fee for that, mine was ~ 5 dollars/each school
high school transcripts for schools like SUNY and SCCO... $5/school
NOVA wanted high school AP exam schools (WHY IN THE WORLD???)...i didnt bother sending them so i dont know how much.

I think my total tab was 1200. But I didn't have to fly to interviews either.
Save some dough, take a kaplan test from the book or the free test from opted and see where you stand before you blow a "stack" on a oat course
