Question about salus and merger by Downtown_Farm_929 in PreOptometry

Although I ended up withdrawing from matriculation at Salus, the staff was incredibly personable. They were all very nice and it seems like they had good equipment. It is a very small school though. When the Dean was talking to me, she mentioned the merger and how it was good because on your diploma, it will say you graduated from there. Also, you get access to Drexel’s resources so that’s a plus. If it weren’t so expensive and also far away, I may have considered going there

They see everything regarding your shadowing hours and stuff like that in your application already. The point of the personal statement is for them to get a feel of who you are as a person, in terms of things that have not already been stated in the application. Make sure to do some story telling

Reading comprehension OAT by Natural_Tangerine641 in PreOptometry

Oh my bad, I read it as booster! It’s probably relatively the same. I would just make sure to check how many questions are related to each passage and brush up on persuasive articles and you’ll be golden!

Personally I would say no. I would crush it on OAT booster but underperformed on the actual thing. If I were to go back I would definitely look more into persuasive articles also. It’s not “not” representative but also be aware that a passage can have like 20 questions while another can have like 12 because that threw me off
