I'm scheduled to take the OAT in about 2 weeks (June 23rd) but feel very unprepared. I have been studying since classes finished the first week of May but have been busy with work and I'm behind schedule on my study plan. I feel good about biology but have not finished reviewing gen chem, organic, or physics.
I was thinking of postponing my exam to mid or late July. I don't mind paying the fee and I feel it would give me more time to study but will postponing my exam delay my application and hurt my chances of being accepted?
I have a 3.95 GPA, shadowing hours, and many extra curricular activities. Should I take the OAT on my scheduled date and take the chance of getting a low score that could possibly be a red flag to optometry schools? Or take the exam in July with (hopefully) a higher score but late application?
