grossmont &/or city college waiting list

Published

this will be my second year on the waiting list for the ADN program at grossmont college... when i submitted my application, the school TOLD me it'd be two years, but everyone i talked to said it would be more likely one year, so i assumed that i'd get in this past fall... but, no. :(

so my question is: is anyone else still waiting on the grossmont waiting list? or if you already got in, how long did you wait? is the city college waiting list any shorter?

I applied in Jan 2006. I received the letter that I was on the waiting list and that's the last I heard from them. I know I'm still on the list because I moved and called to change my address.

I got accepted into another program but I think it's odd that they never sent me anything else.

Hang in there JuneBee:nuke:

Good Luck sdmommie. I'm supposed to be taking it sometime in the next couple of weeks for Maric. I'm a little nervous myself. Let us know how it goes.

Barefoot!

Whose program did you go with?

Grossmont has never sent me anything either. I just call (or walk in) every semester under the guise of making sure my address and phone number is still correct.

I think sdmommie also was put on the waiting list in Jan 06. Maybe this was your semester?! Or maybe you'll get a call next semester from Grossmont - wouldn't that just be irritating?!:trout:

Anyway, I'm glad to hear that you in a programNow you're on your way!!!

Thanks for the feedback!

Does anyone happen to know what the cutoff percentage is for Grossmont's TEAS? I hear that for some schools you have to score at least a 80%. I hope this isn't the case here.

when i took the test, i heard from other testers that you had to pass with a score in the high 60%s (67%? 68%? something like that?), but i don't know how accurate that was... the passing grade for the program is 74%, so i wouldn't be surprised if that was the passing score for the TEAS.

the test (to me) was easier than the study guide & online practice test... i got an 80-something on the practice test & a 95% on the real test. so if you're doing okay with the practice test & the study guide, you'll be fine.

GOOD LUCK!!! :)

I just got back from taking the test. The rumor is that you have to get a 67% to pass. I got a 92%!!! Wooo Hooo :yeah:

You were right. The online practice test was actually harder than the real one. I'm sooo glad that's done.

I haven't heard anything. It's been a week now (with Thanksgiving). Has anybody heard anything about anyone getting in the program?

sdmommie-

I'd call and ask. Do you know if you're in the program to start in the Spring?

it took about five business days after the TEAS to hear anything from grossmont. if you're wondering about it, i'd definitely give them a call just to see if letters or emails have been sent out. GOOD LUCK! :)
