JJC Spring 2010 applicants

ZACH - who do you have for Soc 290? I have to take that class and I've heard some instructors are much better than others. How do you like yours?

O'Riordan(sp?) I think that's how you spell his name. Total blow off class. Extremely easy tests that are all online and open book. The questions consist of vocabulary words and definitions. He used to teach juvenile delinquents when he was younger and I think he retired and works at JJC for the hell of it. Makes the class easy for you because I think he wants it to be easy for him.

I love at the end of the email where it says if you have been denied multiple times to contact career services and to think about a different career.

I finished almost everything. I am currently taking BIO240 and BIO251. When I complete these two, I will have finished all the sciences required. I haven't taken speech or sociology, but I was told they didn't matter.

im am so excited! i got accepted.day program. it has been a long haul trying to get in.Congrats to those of you who made it..We're about to start one heck of a journey. My sympathys to those that were denied. KEEP TRYING!! dont give up.

lilwannabern - would you be willing to share you application stats? I applied and was denied. My test scores were well above the averages of students accepted but my GPA was below. I have 4 of the 6 pre-req's and am in A&P II right now. Just curious. Trying to understand it.

Thanks!

Meg - My scores were as follows:

• BIO151, BIO240, ENG 101, PSYCH 215, HEAL 109, BIO 250 - "A"
• PSYCH 101 - the dept. let me skip since I had taken it as an undergrad when pursuing my B.S. There is no grade shown on my transcript for this course. I was told that it would be treated as a "C" in calculating my points (as though I CLEP'ed out of it)
• Currently enrolled in BIO240 and BIO251
• TEAS Composite: 92%
• TEAS Reading: 100%
• Missing Requirements for Graduation: SPCH101, SOC290

I hope that helps some.

Does anyone know how many applications were received and how many people were accepted this semester?
