“As soon as I began my subscription, I could tell that OATBooster was a cut above the other competing programs.”

Prior to discovering OATBooster, studying for the OAT seemed unmanageable and was a great source of stress for me in preparing for optometry school. I had no idea where to begin to start comprehensively reviewing four years of content from my undergraduate education. When I started looking into preparation programs, I saw the numerous success stories and raving reviews about OATBooster, making it stand out significantly among other programs and leading me to select it as my study tool. I could not have made a better decision. As soon as I began my subscription, I could tell that OATBooster was a cut above the other competing programs. The custom study plan evenly broke down the content into a digestible amount of content for each day, and it allowed me to see exactly what I would be reviewing and how long it would take. This let me fit my study schedule into my work schedule, and also allowed me to still incorporate time with friends and family seamlessly. This was a great source of relief for me, since I was concerned that studying for the OAT would consume all my free time for the next few months. 

As I began to dive into the content, I was very impressed by the high quality graphics of the videos, especially since I am primarily a visual learner. The explanations in the videos were set up in a way that allowed for larger concepts to be broken down and explained in great detail, providing a comprehensive but also understandable review of all content. And that may be the most impressive part of this program: that all of the content I could have possibly been tested on was covered in the custom study plan. This is what gave me so much confidence as I approached my exam day; I did not feel unprepared for any section of the exam and felt that I had sufficiently reviewed and practiced all the necessary content. On this note, OATBooster did a great job of integrating practice questions and smaller practice exams into the study plan alongside the review videos. This gave me the opportunity to actively employ and test my knowledge of the videos, as well as review in-depth written and video solutions for any questions I got wrong. This allowed me to identify and address all my areas of weakness and gaps in knowledge leading up to the exam. Nearing the end of the study plan, the multitude of full length practice exams were what really solidified my success on the OAT. They taught me how to pace myself, develop testing endurance, make the most of the mid-exam break, and learn the overall strategies that benefited me most for taking the exam. Overall, I greatly appreciated the initiative this program took to ensure every student would be more than prepared to take their exam. The detailed videos, notes, question solutions, cheat sheets, games, practice exams, and other study tools made a world of difference in helping me achieve a score I did not think was possible for myself on the OAT. On behalf of myself and every other student who has been successful through this program, I'd like to extend a huge thank you to OATBooster!
