Is anyone waiting to hear back from nursing department with lotto results? I was told it would take place end of march. this is my 4th time applying to their program at CCC.

I started looking over things a couple months ahead of time but I only really got into the material about three weeks in advance, and then I studied like for finals. My main tips are to buy the practice exams from the PSI website and buy the TEAS mastery app for like $10. Otherwise I don't think review materials are as useful as Khan academy videos and your A&P notes.

Thank you for sharing :)

@ocean43 hey, I remember you told me you were once placed as #19 on the alt list at ccc. Was that when you took the teas? I'm now #19 on the list bc they had to take out 5 students from it due to teas results. Did they ever call you about getting in the program or never?

[dreamnursing2]

Hi. No I never got the call I haven't had luck

[nb1104_, ADN]

Not even to take the teas?? Btw, when are you retaking your teas?

[dreamnursing2]

No because their remediation students from year prior passed their exam no space

[dreamnursing2]

Taking it in spring when are you taking yours ?

[nb1104_, ADN]

Ahh! Makes sense! I take mine on June 2nd. I hope I pass and get in at ccc.

@sydneyT12 I talked to Rita yesterday about the teas and had the opportunity to ask her about the space. She told me that there were 8 people removed from alt list, so that brings me down to #16 and that last year, they went up to alt list #29. Didn't ask for the reason but it's either because of teas or people rejected their acceptance. What number are you?

[sydneyT12]

@kbear09 I'm not entirely sure how it works, but when we first got the results I was #40. So does that mean I'm #4 on the alt list now? Since 40-28=12 Then because 8 people were removed I go down to 4 right?

[nb1104_, ADN]

@sydneyT12 yes, but call them to make sure. How I asked her was "I just want to know if the alt list went down"

[dreamnursing2]

It's really unknown. you have to contact the director because there are remediation students from last year as well who will be accommodated if passed TEAS.
