I have been out of school for ~5 yrs now and have hit a rut in my current career. I have a BS in Chemical Engineering, and I am currently working in the oil industry. I find the work very challenging, but not fulfilling. Just wondering if with my science background getting accepted would be difficult. Does the fact that I have some real world experience help or hurt me? How typical are non-traditional students in optometry schools? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
