How many prereqs is too many to still have when applying to optometry school??

Hi! I'm planning to apply to optometry school this summer and wanted to get some input on prereqs.

Right now, I'm enrolled in Ochem II and Physics I If I apply this cycle, I would still need to complete Physics II and III, which I plan to take during the upcoming academic year. I'm also planning to study for the OAT during my spring quarter. Is having two physics courses remaining too many, or is that normal as long as they’re completed before matriculation?

Would appreciate hearing about others’ experiences!
