How many points did everyone apply with? Feeling anxious 

I calculated and have approx 70-75 I think. My friend is in the program and got in with 80 her classmate got in with 77. I hope I get in.

I have 73 points. Fingers crossed! 

70 for me and I've been on pins-and-needles this entire time/process

75 points & 91% ATI. I'm nervous. I'm also scared about this school, they said this school is unorganized. 😭 we need to study Dosage Calculation right away because I heard we need to do it 4 times. We need 95-96% minimum score. 

I wonder if this is more challenging to get into programs in cc compare to cal states, feels like everyone wanted to get into program in cc cuz they are lot cheaper.

I 100% think it's more hard because it's really cheap my friend is attending APU and has to pay 11k per semester. She's waiting to see if she gets accepted to this school so she can attend with me if we both get in. I applied to csula and CSUF but it seems people with licenses get a higher chance than us that don't have done medical license 

Yeah, a CC is the best way to go if you can get in. State schools are affordable too but I think you can't have any C's and I think there are recency policies for core science classes. Private schools are a ridiculous amount of money but I get why some people choose that route as it's so difficult to get in anywhere. 

I'm applying with 90 points BUT I also only applied here so I am scared AHHHH. Cal states are super competitive and don't allow retaken courses so PCC was my best bet... I emailed the office and they said apps are still under review and to keep checking emails for an update.
