Same!! I get married on the 14th, so I have so much stressing me out ?

I’m more nervous about my application, though!!

That's so exciting! Congratulations!

March feels like the longest month ever ?. Or is it just me?

It definitely feels like a long month! The more and more posts I see and people I hear from also has me pretty discouraged about my score, so that's not making matters much better either!

I feel the same way ?. I still have another school to apply to. I need a 93% for that school though. Taking their exam on Friday. What is your score? And what is the others scores for LFCC? ?

Are there any other forums you guys are in? I don’t know anyone else applying so haven’t heard about anyone else’s scores besides what’s on here. It doesn’t go by overall HESI score, there’s a rubric for points to get in. 115 is the max.

It does go by a point system. Some friends and people in some of my classes are applying and I know they have 80-90 points. I personally don't have that many points, but I believe you'd posted you had 90 or so in one of the previous posts. I think your score is definitely competitive.

Yes, I've referred to the rubric for points! ? I'm not in any other forums, I just know of the points others have received based on people I know and some peers in other classes. So far I'm aware of only a handful of people who have 80-90 points. In my one class alone, I have roughly 9 people applying. Most are hesitant to tell their score though. (I am too, haha!)

I’m only on here. I have an overall of 90 points on HESI for this rubric. I can’t get the 15points for Residence ?

Are these 80-90 overall points? Or HESI only? I feel discourage because of the 15 points I will be losing. I live in Richmond so I’m not sure who’s applying ?

This is the only forum I have been able to find that is specifically for the Fall 2020 semester. I could be wrong, but someone said that the 15 points for service region were extra points and the total is actual out of 100. The 15 points was to help boost the scores of people who reside in the service region. Don't hold me on this though I would have to ask the nursing department to be sure. I am sitting at about 95 points right now.

LOL I can understand that. I have an overall score of 110, I’m definitely grateful for the residency points. I switched from NVCC to LFCC just to be closer to campus....unless I don’t make it into the warrenton campus which would then give me a loooong commute ?

@BKsCatch22 that is an amazing score. Even though the Fauquier campus is very competitive I think you are a shoe in! Congrats on the points!? Did you also apply to the middletown campus when submitting the application??
