I am planning on applying to optometry school this fall, and definitely want to be applying as early as possible. Would it benefit me to try to take the OAT early this summer (late june/early july) so I can get my application in sooner, with the possibility of retaking it in September/October if I end up not doing as well as I would like.
I figured this way I could just go for it and if I do well then I am all set. If I don't do well then I retake it and still get my OAT scores in later, but not too late (I hope).
Also, when applying to take the OAT, I have the ability of sending my score to every school for no additional fees. I know this is a one-time deal, but is it worth it to send my scores to all schools if I'm not going to try applying to them? I figured I should just send my scores to the schools I am actually applying to.
Thank you in advance for your comments!
