Hi,
I just got the booklist for this year. Optometry school is already so expensive, so I am wondering if I have to buy all the books. I will buy the ones that students recommend and feel that help the most in their preparation. During my interview, one student told me that they did not buy any books, which surprised me and just curious if that is really possible. Any responses or recommendations would be great!
