Hi all,

I am applying to optometry schools this fall, so does anyone know when I should take the OAT? Is it only offered a few times a year? Any advice would be great!

You can pretty much take it anytime you want, it depends on the testing centre that you will be taking it at. The schools will have a dealine of when the latest you can receive your scores is. You will have to look at the schools that you are applying to and find out the deadlines. I would write it as soon as you feel you will be able to, but allowing yourself enough time to take the test again if needed. Check out www.opted.org This site will have more information about the OAT.
