Hi guys! I am new to this forum. I am planning to apply to ICO, NECO, Pacific, and SUNY this year. I am hoping to find help and advise from those who are US permanent residents, hold the BS degree from another country and got accepted or applying to the optometry school.
I am US permanent resident (I have a Green Card). I graduated 6 years ago from university in Estonia with BS in Bio-and Food Technology. My degree covers most of the prerequisites. I also took some of the prerequisites at the local community college. My prereq GPA is about 3.84
If anybody in a similar situation:
Did you have a hard time applying with prerequisites taken from different country?
Do you think retaking them worth it?
DO you think the time gap of 6 years will have big influence on the acceptance decision?
I would really appreciate any help and advice.
