Hi! I just interviewed today and was told that they score everything and take the top 45 scores. GPA, Letters of recommendation, GRE, CCRN and the interview create a composite score that they enter into an excel spreadsheet and they take the top...

My interview was awful...It seems like a lot of people had a great experience. It's a waiting game now. They will make a decision by Monday and we should hear back anywhere between Monday and Wednesday... Best wishes everyone!!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels like their interview was horrible. I also interviewed today and felt like I did awful.

Hi! Thanks for clarifying that process! Why did you feel it was awful?? You’re probably just overthinking it tbh.

so if they're putting into a spreadsheet, I guess not having the GRE will work against us. I'm supposed to take the GRE on Saturday.

It's me! I am probably overthinking it--at least, I hope I am. But I have honestly never formally interviewed for anything up until this point. I stumbled over a response to a question, extra hard!! I stopped in the middle of my answer and asked for a second to regroup and felt my nerves in my throat. So this is why I think it was awful, LOL!!

I’m sorry that you feel like you didn’t do well ?& that that happened to you . Hopefully that doesn’t affect anything too much !

@JKRenee , I think it may work against you too but IDK. It’ll be in the “pending status”. & they’re making decisions Monday @4 . I didn’t wanna take mine when I did but I rushed & got it out the way for that reason . Who knows though. Because what if they’re just making us do our GRE & it’s not really being counted towards anything ? Because I saw someone say that they said people need to have it done by January before classes begin. So many questions ?LOL . I did my GRE about 3 weeks ago & hated it . Therefore, I will be praying for you & wishing you the best of luck love !!

From what I understand from the email, you shouldn’t be in pending status if you’ve sent them a scheduled GRE date. But who knows! I’m so confused haha. When I emailed the coordinator she told me she wasn’t sure what the admissions committee would decide in regards to those with pending GRE test scores

The program chair told me that it wouldn’t affect admissions decisions if you didn’t take it by Monday. He said it just needs to be scheduled, and taken before the January start date.
