Hi everyone,

So the deadline to dispute your points was this last Friday at 5:00 pm. I am hoping they send the interview letters out ASAP (like tomorrow) considering we have to schedule them online for the following week! The waiting is killing me. I got 54 points so I think I will get an interview but we'll see. Had an interview at MHCC last Tuesday and then I am waiting for a letter from Clark too. The waiting is intolerable!! :angryfire

I am wonderful if anyone has heard anything from Clackamas about scheduling your interview or about the point system? How many points do you need to interview?

Thanks!

I am currently a second year student at Clackamas. I know the whole waiting game stinks but I wanted to say good luck. It's a great program. I also got into Clark and Clackamas but chose Clackamas-so many decisions!

Last years interview cut off was 51 points but who knows where it'll be this year.

The letters for interviews *just* went out today, so you should be seeing a letter very soon. I just got mine (got the interview - yay!!!)

tejon- congrats! I just picked up my letter and I've been invited to interview too. I'm curious to know what the cut-off point was for an interview this year but I don't want to bother the poor admissions person by asking since she's probably totally exhausted from getting us to this point! Good luck with your interview and let me know if you hear what the cut point was.

Congrats to you as well! I called and asked about the points cut off, but the nursing school secretary said they don't release the number until everyone has their interview letters, so who knows.

I also got an interview at CCC with 55 points...does anyone have any advice on prepping for the interview questions? Also, what is the written section about, what will they expect us to answer? Congrats to everyone and good luck!

They told you all they wanted you to know because they want to see how you can think on your feet. You got this far youll be fine. Good luck.

I just got done with my interview at CCC. I was really nervous, but it wasn't bad at all. The instructors who gave us the group interview were really nice and happy to repeat questions if necessary, and the atmosphere was comfortable. I was really happy to be able to do the essay on computer - saves the hands! Now waiting until next week to see if I got in.

MHCC did essays by hand, it was horrible!! I canceled my CCC interview yesterday... I felt weird doing it, like I shouldn't have canceled, but it was my last choice and I already got accepted into MHCC so hopefully gave someone else a chance at CCC! Good luck!
