Hey fellow applicants (yay, we're done with applying this year)!!!
Now that the deadline has passed, and now that we're all waiting in AGONY to hear back... I was wondering if anybody else would want to share their points?
I guess it might be silly, but I'm just so anxious to know where we stand!
I have a feeling I won't make it this time, but mine are 85.9 - eeek! GOOD LUCK!!

I remember I said in another thread, yours are so close...you never know, you definitely have a chance! Especially for the wait list...I remember they said one year they used everyone on it.
My points are a bumming 79.25

i feel the same way! I have 94 points and im still extremely nervous....how long before they get here? i have hjeard that they send them out as early as the last week of March or mid-April. I need to take a&p 2 and nutrition still
Smashley you have no reason to be nervous, you will get in. 90+ is pretty much garunteed, the past two years the lowest scores for initial acceptance were around 86 so pre-congrats! :)

87.3. Im hoping that I make it even if just barely. I hear we should know by april2.
I'd think that jice and Smashley get in this time!
With my points (85.9), I think I'd rather have FEWER points so I wouldn't be on pins and needles about being on the cusp! I have my B.A., but I'm missing all the bio classes, so that's what's hurting me so badly this time. I'm in Nutrition now (take Anna Pace if you can - she's awesome!), and will take A&P and Microbiology this summer/fall/spring.

They don't go SOLELY on points, they have many considerations. They want a diverse group. Gender, ethnicity, and age all play into their decision. So having a higher points calculation is more reassuring but being male, non-white, and older age can help you if you are on the cusp.
I sure hope so, dee! That would be awesome! :)
