What are your general comments?

"Count on being at SCCO for at least 3 hours. The first 30 minutes is spent writing an informal 1-page essay. My topic was on professionalism and was really easy. The next 30 minutes is spent discussing financial aid. Then comes the 60 minute interview, and finally, a quick meeting with the VP of admissions to go over final details of your application (basically to tell you if you're missing anything). My stats were: Pre-req GPA: 3.7 Overall GPA: 3.3 TS OAT: 320 AA OAT: 310 **my OAT scores were pretty pathetic...but I think you just need to get over a 300 to be considered...thank goodness! 6 LORs (3 from professors, 2 from practicing optometrist, 1 from Bausch & Lomb) Experience: Optometric assistant for almost 3 years GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE AND I HOPE THIS POST HELPS!"
