Hey everyone I would really appreciate some advice.
So, I have just graduated a 4 year life science program with a very low gpa (2.3), but my gpa is not indicative of my abilities as I put very minimal effort into school. I realized late in university that I want to go to optometry (fourth year) and I have since started shadowing as optometrist. I want to write my OAT this summer but as I continue to do more research I have realized how important a high GPA is. What can I do?
Should I go back to school and take more courses to raise my GPA?
Should I try and apply for a masters?
Your brutal honesty would be much appreciated
Thank you.
