I just finished my application today. I have 61 points.. Kinda low I think. I hope it's good enough. How about anyone else?

Hello,

I just got accepted into Merced's Spring 2016 program on my first try. I didn't apply to Modesto but this was after a year of applying to 5 other colleges and not getting selected. I think the odds are greater of getting into Merced because of their unique application procedure. They seem to be the only college that requires you to hand deliver your application during a 3 day window. This eliminates a lot of people because not everyone can drive the distance to turn in an application. They had 180 applicants and 60 got accepted (30 for Fall and 30 for Spring). About 3 alternates got in during the orientation. My points were not the highest that's for sure. I think my overall score was somewhere around 64 (cannot remember exactly). 10% goes to the highest points, and the remaining are thrown into a random lottery.
