Hey y'all!

Since this seems to be the thing to do around this place, I figured I'll have a go at it. What are my chances, SDN?

-graduated Spring 2010 with BS Biology (3.8 GPA)
-worked as a teller(unrelated, I know!) part-time all throughout college (sometimes up to 30 hrs)
-replaced teller supervisor for a little over a month while she was sick
-currently working as a tutor at a high school
-shadowed only 1 optometrist so far (more soon)
-volunteered/shadowed with EMTs at local fire station
-volunteered at a youth group for low income kids on weekends
-no research experience, unfortunately (due to work mostly)

I'll be taking the OAT this summer and am looking into SUNY, Salus, and SCO primarily.

Assuming you get a decent OAT score (above 300 on all sections) as your GPA suggests, you will have no problems getting into most schools.
For SUNY you need OAT scores above 330 which, again, you should achieve if you put enough effort into it.
