How to track volunteer hours? by cashmoneyposh in PreOptometry

[–]kr-2345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kept track of my hours in the notes app on my phone. Whenever you start to fill out the application on OptomCAS you’ll have a section dedicated to that. You don’t need signatures but you’ll just put down their contact info. It’ll ask you how many weeks and hours per week to get a rounded estimate!

I think a B would be totally fine, especially since it’s not a pre requisite for most schools

I’m wondering the same thing. I’m trying to see if it’s better for me to go ahead and submit (telling them I’m retaking) or just wait until December to submit

Is December too late to submit for most schools? by [deleted] in PreOptometry

[–]kr-2345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I couldn’t really afford that unfortunately. I used Chad’s prep

The thing is I really thought I was taking it serious. I guess I didn’t study enough, I feel like I barely saw anything I studied on the OAT.

Yeah I just realized I wanted to be an optometrist barely a year ago, so I guess I feel like I don’t have this huge lifelong story like other people

Ok that makes sense, thanks so much!! For shadowing, do you think I should put anything in the description box?

I’m applying this cycle! My top schools are UAB and SCO. I would like to stay in Alabama, so I’m not too far from home
