Applicants to Portland area schools 2011

Published

How's everyone doing with their Apps?

I applied to MHCC, CCC, PCC and Linfield.

It's my first year applying and I'm a nervous wreck!!!

How long does it usually take to hear whether or not you got an interview?

I was glad to see CCC changed their deadline to Feb 15th like the other OCNE schools-I think it'll make the waiting more bearable!

Anyone else want to share points to see how tight the competition is this year?

Other than Mt. Hood, I don't get too many discretionary points. :(

Heres what I *think* I have (figuring them myself):

MHCC-63 points

CCC-50 or 51 points depending on how they round up your gpa

PCC-54 points

Good luck everyone!!!

Let the nail biting, stalking the mailbox begin! :lol2:

The letter said 60 minutes, although it's a group interview and I'm not exactly sure of the format beyond that...

For those who already had their interviews at MHCC....did they really take 3 hours? haha that just seems SO long!!!

Also, did they say anything regarding the strike?

My interview is on Saturday and I'm so stinking nervous I could puke! lol

Specializes in ICU, CVICU.

My interview wtih MHCC was about 2.5hrs- you get an hour of writing then you share individually within the group for about an hour, and it took about a half an hour to cover suplimental material. It actually went by very fast because it was broken up.

I didn't think to ask about the strike, but there is a question and answer time, I'm sure they would be willing to answer any questions you may have; especially since the strike/budget has affected the part-time program (in that they cancelled it).

Good luck!

Thanks so much! :)

One last question and hopefully you don't find it to be too much to share (if it is, than feel free to tell me and not answer) but during your 1 hour of writing, are we typing our responses or handwritting? And do we have our piece of paper with us for our verbal responses or just flying by the seat of our pants (our memories)?

I'm worried that I may forget everything once I go up there! ha

I think its OK to let you know that its handwriting and you will be able to reference what you have written.

Good luck!

Aw thanks so much! Good luck to ladies too!

I really hope a whole group of us get in together so we can have built in study buddies before our program even begins. I know I need a refresher on A&P. I took Bi233 last summer so it's been awhile but I kept all my stuff to review this summer. :)

How many are invited to CCC interviews? I know there are 40 spots. Anyone also know approx. how may alternates they will select?

Just got a call from Clackamas Community College. I was on the wait list. They asked me to come in this coming Thursday at 8AM for an interview. I said, "only if you beg me to". lol.

Do you mind me asking how many points you had at Clackamas? Thanks!
