Hello!
I am currently a 4th year student studying in Canada. I've sent in my application to OptomCAS recently and my stats are pretty good. However, I have next to no optometry related experience. I have not volunteered for an optometrist before and do not have much exposure to the field other than my own research and shadowing on a few occasions. Do you think this will hurt my chances a lot?
I got 400TS and 380AA on the OAT and am applying with a 3.81 GPA. My extracurriculars are good- I've held exec positions in two clubs, am currently co-pres, have research experience, as well as many other volunteering experiences. I've applied to ICO, NECO, and SALUS. What are my chances of getting an interview with my limited optometry background?
Thanks in advance!
