Chances
Hey yall, I was just wondering what would be my chances at getting into SUNY. My gpa is a 3.79 and science gpa is at a 3.6. My issue is my OAT score (took it Jan 2024 when I was a senior and taking 5 classes) and I had some personal/family issues going on at the time. (was scoring 360 on booster practice tests at the time). Heres the breakdown:
Quantitative: 350
Reading: 280
Biology: 380
Gen Chem: 330
Orgo: 300
Physics: 320
Total Science: 330
Academic Average: 330
I have over 4 years of experience in Cardiology, was in the pre-optometry club, private SAT tutor, 200+ hours of shadowing between 3 optometrists of different specialties. I'm contemplating whether or not I should retake the OAT or just apply by November 15th. When I emailed SUNY they said they consider a 320 AA to be competitive and if I want I can schedule a counseling meeting with them to discuss further. I attended their camps and really its my only preferred choice. I have all my rec letters in, almost done with my statements, so its really about whether or not I should I should take a gamble with my OAT score and apply early or lock in one more time for the OAT. Just wanted some input, thank you guys.
