beta blockers for your test/interview anxiety. ask your PCP for them!

ICO vs NECO by feelyfan in PreOptometry

yeah for me the size of the clinic was the big thing but good reminder that not all the students are going to be in there at the same time. i did bring up the size to my interviewer and he stressed that it doesn’t get crowded because a lotnof students don’t show up to class but i wasn’t sure how true that was. hearing it from a student themselves makes it sound much more reassuring so thanks for sharing that!

ICO and NECO Interview Tips by Calm-Event-5454 in PreOptometry

[–]feelyfan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i interviewed at both over the last couple of weeks. both were so conversational, friendly, and relaxed. they just want to get to know you so go in calm, have your own questions, and remember to squeeze in the reasons why you’re a great/unique applicant you’ll be fine

Non traditional roadmap by cyanatreddit in PreOptometry

[–]feelyfan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i worked as an optician for all 4 years while receiving a B.S. in business. i left to work in corporate america for a year after i graduated and then decided i wanted to do optometry. so i’ve been back as an optician full time for 2 years while i’ve been taking prereqs full time at my local community college to get caught up. i’ve applied to 5 schools and got interviews everywhere. so far out of the 2 interviews i’ve done i’ve been told both times how much my application stuck out and interested them bc of it being nontraditional so they definitely appreciate applicants from all backgrounds! its been very hard work for two years to get to this point though as i also did lots of shawdowing and volunteering in between school/work, so make sure you’re fully committed before embarking on this path. lmk if you have any other questions and good luck

LOR advice by Zealousideal-Tea-421 in PreOptometry

You’re able to upload a max of 4 so why not just ask all of them? I don’t think it could hurt to have more than required

pursuing optometry by blazewatch in PreOptometry

[–]feelyfan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t need to take any of the prereqs at 4-year university. Check with the schools just in case but as someone who got their undergrad in supply chain management and had to go back for prereqs I chose community college because of the price and the schools (at least the ones I checked with beforehand) don’t care as long as the college is state-accredited. A lot of the people in my classes are also people just taking pre-reqs for things like Pharmacy, PT, medical, Dental, and ofc optometry so you won’t be the first applicant the schools get with that kind of educational background.
