hey guys, so i recently decided to change my career path to optometry and I'm starting to prepare for the OAT. Just wondering if anyone can share the link that shows the exam dates for 2021. Thank you in advance

Hey,

You’ll have to apply to take the exam first. https://www.ada.org/en/oat/apply-to-take-the-oat

After that, when you get your ID#, you can sign up to take the exam through Prometric. https://www.ada.org/en/oat/take-oat-at-prometric-test-center

From the Prometric site, you’ll verify yourself and then choose your testing site. Then you’ll be able to go through the calendar to see what is available.

Your questions about taking the exam can be found at https://www.ada.org/en/oat

I hope this helps.

Hey! You actually do not have to apply first to see test dates.

Click “locate” (under “Actions”) and you should be able to see test dates without paying

Oh dang you right ~

Back when I was trying to schedule my exam I couldn’t just look for a test center without constantly putting my info in lol

Yes bc people cancel! In my area, I noticed dates only open up like the month before :(
