I spoke to -------------- & I’m glad I did. I thought I had 76 points but I have 74 they’re now factoring in your chemistry grade when calculating your GPA so that’s what brought me down. Still hoping for the best!

Did she say how other students points are coming so far?

I feel like it would be a tad unprofessional to discuss other applicants' scores; unless you're asking if other students' points have been tallied in general and not the specific numbers.

I took micro over the summer last year and it was brutal lol. I was working full time and taking another online class too, so it was just a lot. Definitely harder because the class was condensed from 16 weeks to 8 weeks, but overall still doable! I think the main thing is just try to stay on top of all the material that was taught each day. Try to not fall behind or it will be difficult to catch up. Good luck!

She doesn’t know how the application pool is looking because Steve hasn’t calculated points yet

I took Micro last summer and it was the best decision I made. It was a lot of work but I was able to focus on just that class. I don't know if Anatomy and Physio would be the same since its usually more lab hours.

Who did you take micro with? I’m going to retake it if I’m not accepted this round.

I didn't take micro over the summer, but I took it with -------------------- at RCC. She's a fantastic teacher and gives you everything you need to succeed. Getting an A is definitely doable if you put in the time.

Yes! I took her this past Fall and she was amazing.

I took it at Mt. Sac with -------------------. I should also point out that she warned people that they would not be able to work and take her class at the same time. Idk if that helps

any of you guys think there's a chance we'll hear back this week or next? haha. I'm growing more and more impatient!

I have a friend in the program currently who asked ------------ and he said we would hear back in April ?
