Hi,
I am a junior, and a "pre-dental" student actually thinking of switching to optometry.
The thing is, I have already taken the DAT, shadowed (100hours) dentists, volunteered at dental clinics, and was planning to apply to dental schools in 3 months (by June).
The thing is I've been having some eye problems that led me to become interested in optometry.
Do you think I have a chance at getting into optometry school with the DAT (above avg score), a solid GPA, but bunch of experiences in dentistry? Would shadowing an optometrist be sufficient?
