share13, if I were you, I'd call George Fox and see if your statistics credits will meet the math requirement. If you've taken a math course higher than their minimum requirement and it transfers to the school you want to go to, usually that is satisfactory and they won't require you to take MTH111.

PCC waitlisters: I was #33 on the waitlist and just received a phone call this morning offering me a spot in the nursing program. I just wanted to let all of you know that I declined and the next person in line should be receiving a call soon! :)

Has anyone called to check when they are sending out the letters? I KNOW they said by June 1st, but I am getting soo impatient! I feel like my mailman knows everything about me already over our daily conversations by the mailbox lol

Sasafras, I seem to remember that the essay was worth 15 points.. And I think the whole process was 30 points so I'm guessing 15 each.. I can't wait for my letter this week!

emmyers, The impression that I got from my previous interviewers is that to share ANYTHING may hurt your chances at getting accepted. I, personally, would rather not take that chance. I figure that if they wanted us to know the format or any other details, they would have informed all of the applicants in their invitation letters. I do, however, understand that some people may have disabilities, which is why I suggested SushiOConnor to contact the school directly. Of course, everyone is entitled to their opinion. You may be right, but I would rather play it safe when it comes to something as important as this.

SushiOConnor, I don't think that you should stress about the essay portion. If you are really worried about it, I would contact the nursing program office or disability services before your interview. I believe that if you provide documentation, they are required by law to accommodate your disability.

And Lilpoka, I'm sad that I didn't get to meet you! I ended up calling and switching my interview to a later time that day. They had someone cancel so they were able to fit me in. I am glad that it's all over though. :)

I don't mean to sound disrespectful, but I think that disclosing details about the interview process gives other applicants an unfair advantage. When the first group of us went in, all we knew was that we would be given a 30 minute timeframe to complete the essay and an hour for the verbal question/answer session. I will say that I think it would be very beneficial if you arrive 15-20 minutes early. I found it relieved a intense amount of stress for me to talk to the other applicants before the interview began and get to know them a little better. The interviewers were extremely nice and easy-going so once you get in there, the feeling of wanting to throw up from the anxiety lessens a bit! Sasafras0123, it sounds like you're very much like me in terms of freaking out about things beforehand lol. I took some natural pills with valerian root in them to calm my nerves the morning of the interview and it seemed to help. I also prayed A LOT!! Just know that there is only so much you can do to prepare! Just think... After the interview you only have a week of worrying before you find out if you're accepted! The rest of us are suffering through two weeks! I decided afterward the interview ended that I wasn't going to second-guess any of my answers and torture myself. I am just putting everything in God's hands and hoping for the best.

Waitlisted at PCC @ #33. I'm a little disappointed that I didn't get accepted right off the bat but I'm pretty hopeful that I will get in once CCC sends out interview letters.

Clark College
I applied for the April 1st deadline. I was missing one prerequisite that I thought I had so I got bumped down from 46 points to 41. I'm not too confident that I will get an interview because the minumin points have been pretty high the last few semesters.

I haven't been able to sleep because my brain just won't turn off! I've been reciting the periodic table in my mind every night to try to bore myself to sleep haha Slowly being driven insane.... It's so frustrating to have the rest of your life riding on this upcoming month!
