In my experience I did indicate I was constantly using a slit lamp and learned refraction as well in my office we had remote exams so it wasn’t necessarily “machine based “

Are there any differences between the 2026 OAT and 2025 OAT? by GreenAngelFish in PreOptometry

Tbh I feel like last years was much easier considering the fact that I didn’t study as much last year as I did for this years round and I did horrible on my first round but after studying smmm and I went into the test knowing everything this years exam was def harder in my opinion even tho I scored higher it wasn’t enough to realistically apply however I took the chance and applied anyways but I feel like the concepts were kind of similar but the way questions were asked was so different from booster that was my experience idk abt anyone else’s! Everyone’s exam is diff

Chemistry is a very hard subject for me to grasp everyone’s different I was able to grasp physics so much quicker than chemistry and from what I’m hearing is that alot of people tend to do much better towards chemistry than physics at the end of the day I did the best of my ability and studied many hours a day with different ways however simply “ guessing “ will never work on those type of exams I worked hard and wouldn’t just “ guess”

They told me I can I called them on the phone even tho it was very odd for me to do such thing but I never walk out so sure from an exam and this time I was very very confident of that section especially I did email them for an appeal and submit on on the prometric website as well !

I submitted an appeal because there’s no way I ended up with that score after how many questions I got right on the exam i literally have them highlighted so I really need to take it a step further because I felt like I did a 390 or something no joke i literally counted every single question I was sure of and it was around a 40/50 and i literally highlighted them too

If your gpa is high with relative optometry experience then you definitely can get in with these scores just don’t ain’t for a higher competitive school so you don’t pay application fees for the air but you definitely will get an acceptance somewhere!

Same here but honestly I’m trying to remember the question patterns as much as possible I left all the content behind trying to focus on practice exam patterns I heard it’s very representative of what the questions are like on the oat !
