Just wondering, is mostly everyone thats pre-opto on this site a bio major? If not, what major are you guys?
 
Health science. I've also met a few psychology and chemistry majors.
 
I am majoring in chemistry but I am considering changing my major to biology (biomedical science).

I regret not majoring in business from the beginning and just taking the pre-requisite courses. If I were to change my major to business now, it would take me another 2.5 years and I've been in college for 5 years already.

Haha I'm the exact opposite. I graduated with a B.Comm last year and now I'm investigating whether I should have gone the Science route. Optometry was always a career choice, but my parents had a significant influence on me completing a B.Comm instead. Now that I'm out, I can give my full attention to this profession.

I'm worse off than you because I took my last Science course 5 years ago. I don't even think I remember how to read a periodic table anymore and I'm going to take my pre-reqs :scared:
 
No one wants to listen to me but biochemistry is the way to go! If you like chemistry, then this is perfect because it encompasses bio classes as well which are required for optometry school.
 
I graduated with a B.S. in Zoology (Pre-health option). The pre-health option at my school is more directed at fulfilling prerequisites for students wanting to get further education in the health science disciplines. It is technically a biology major with maybe one or two different courses.
 
I graduated two years ago with a BS in Mechanical Engineering with a Bio-med concentration. I worked for a while and decided its not what I really want to do, so back to Optometry school for me!
