Hello,
I'm highly interested in optometry. The only thing is that my gpa is not very strong (in between a 2.4 and 3.0). are optometry school like med school in their admissions and don't even bother looking at an application if it is not at least a 3.0? I'm doing other activities such as research and tutoring high school students as well as wokring. and of course, about to start preparing for the OAT. I was just wondering how the whole admissions works. i know i also need to get more experience with an optometrist as well as do well on the OAT and of course, bring my gpa up. I just need some advice as to what else i can do to prepare for applying for optometry school. any advice will do. thanks so much.
