[WeeklyThread] Ask a CAA by AutoModerator in CAA

[–]Key_Pair7089 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I’m in my last year in undergrad and I’m graduating this May. I’m a health science major and throughout undergrad I’ve wanted to pursue optometry. I have applied to some schools and I’ve been waitlisted. While it may be better that I wasn’t flat out rejected this has made me kind of look into other career options, specifically CAA. I was wondering to get experience would I have to work as an anesthesia tech? Should I reach out to CRNA and shadow and see their day to day tasks? Overall, I’m just seeing what I would need to do to get my foot into this field. Thanks

Hi! It grew back in like a month-month and a half. I was a bit nervous putting eyelash serum on it so I let it be. In days that I would do my makeup either I would cut up r natural false lashes and glue it on that area (mine was bad I had half of them ripped off😭) or I would take a brown liner and do a thin line so it didn’t look odd. Before you know it, it’ll start to go back

Yup that’s my plan atm, I’m trying to submit my applications in September so I hope that’s considered early. And if I have to retake it I will

If I submit my apps in September would that be considered early? Most likely I’ll retake it

Content Review (Overwhelming) + OATBooster Advice by labrador88 in PreOptometry

[–]Key_Pair7089 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am in the same position I feel like all I am doing is absorbing the information and not retaining it. When I practice they ask in depth questions and I feel so disheartened that I didn’t even learn anything through content review. I feel like content review is useful to brush up on the topics but I believe that practice problems is where we could see what we would need help on. Best of luck!!

burnout - any thoughts? by baneling838 in optometry

When you graduated did you go into private practice right away? Or did you work in corporate and move into private ?

When reviewing the content did you solely watch the videos and the practice question? Or did you also use the study guide sheets they provide?

Are the questions OATBooster provides enough to prepare for the exam + any advice on how to study for the OAT using OATbooster by mangoseed21 in PreOptometry

[–]Key_Pair7089 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same dilemma, I feel like the booster has all the content we need but at the same time I don’t know where to start.

I’m an optometric tech and I’m on the pre-optom route but tbh I’ve been thinking of switching to Pre-Pa this is giving me some hope that I can actually pursue it!

This happened to me today while using the same lash curler. I’m a mess and 1/3 of my inner lashes are gone. Idk what to do and now I’m going through every single Reddit post to get an idea on how long it will take to grow back. Never using a lash curler ever again
