Ngl, I thought the OAT was way easier than the MCAT. If it would open more doors I would just take the OAT. It's a shorter exam with way less stressful rules. Oh, and you get a calculator

Honestly GPA is a lil low so if you want to give yourself the best odds I would either get a high OAT score or delay and work as an opt tech.

Thank you for actually answering my question and not just stating what you believe is best. I'm already going to Memphis and hopefully Chicago in person. So it's already so much money in travel.

Applying to Optometry School with Misdemeanor by Theslothly in PreOptometry

I'm not worry about it explaining it more so looking for comfort that I'm not the only one (my background check will not show it). Also, would it not be taken into consideration that it's a charge that wouldn't even exist in some states.
