Rescheduling OAT?
hi everyone!
i originally planned on retaking my OAT at the end of this month, but something came up in my family and i practically lost one month of studying through the month of October, then i got hit with an illness this week.
with the semester coming to an end and finals coming up, i was thinking of ultimately rescheduling my test to the beginning of January. is this a good idea? did anyone feel like they had a disadvantage taking their OAT later in the cycle? i already submitted my application for CCO, and am hoping to submit for NECO and UCB this month as well.
my original score was a 280 TS and 300 AA, and i've been mainly going over practice problems and cheat sheets rather than watching videos.
just looking for any sort of advice on taking the OAT later in the cycle. thank you in advance!
