What is the best way to document the time you spent shadowing Doctors of Optometry? I know it is vital but am not sure how to document it to the satisfaction of Optometry schools and applications.
 
Just keep track of the dates, office/OD names, length of time shadowed, and maybe a few notes about what you learned, did, saw, liked, disliked, etc.
 
If I recall correctly as far as the app goes, optomcas asks for date ranges, approx hours per week and the names and numbers of the ODs. They also ask you to briefly describe your experience. It's similar to what you would put on a resume as far as experience.
