Can people still take the paper version of the OAT if they wished?

No, only computer.
🙁 Now I am more worried than I was before. How do you mark questions to go back to? I am no genius as it is and a very worried about this exam - assuming I do well in organic and calculus to even continue my optometry career wishes. I don't know why they wouldn't even have an option. Just taking it on the computer might make my score lower. Sorry guys, I am just seeing a lot of obstacles in the way, I wish it were easier for me like it is for a lot of you.

There is no Calculus on the test and the computer version is actually tailored to make it easier. Everyone has to take it on the computer so if it makes your scores lower (which I don't think it will), everyone else will suffer from the same effect.
You can mark questions to come back to by simply clicking "mark" and at the end of the section you can choose to go back to only the marked questions or all of the incomplete questions (marked and ones you just didn't finish).
My advice to you is just to relax...just study as much as you can and it will turn out fine.

Thank you Hurricaneuro, I am really getting worried over this because I don't know half of the OAT yet, (Haven't finished Chemistry, organic or physics) and I am afraid of the math section as my skills of being quick at it are low. I have 2 years to prepare, so I am going to use it obviously, I want this a lot. I had not know you could mark specific sections, that is good to hear. Hopefully everything will be all right.
Thanks again
