Hey everyone i am a new member and just joined today.
I need your advice because i wrote the OAT two weeks ago and did horrible.🙁
My overall was a 290 AA and in each section most of my grades were below 300. My TS was 300 and im obviously going to re-write it because i know i can do alot better. Im going to have to wait till January to re-write it and i think that might be to late.
I already applied to this cycle and am interviewing at PCO next week, my gpa is 3.0.
i was thinking of cancelling my PCO interview till i take the OAT again, but its rolling admissions so that might be too late..

I really don't know what to do, and if you're wondering i only applied to PCO because that's the only school i would like to go to.
 
January isn't late I think....anybody know when "late" really is?

I think the whole concept of rolling admissions is just to get everyone to apply early so that the schools can secure and maximize their profits...I don't know, just a thought.
 
i wrote it around the same time as you and didn't do well as i expected either. i was wondering the same question

I'm kind of in the same boat as you. I took the OAT this weekend and got a 300 AA and 300 TS (3.2 gpa). bio, genchem and ochem were great, Physics screwed me =(. I'm shooting for PCO also but I have not sent out my application yet. I think you should go to the interview, no sense in closing the door in your own face. The earliest I can retake it is january but im still going to send out some apps, you never know. Ive read about some people on here getting accepted with a 290 from PCO.
