Of course my low score didn't get redrawn, but glad you all got what you wanted. I'm just happy I didn't give up my spot in another school. :)

I talked to my mother in law who is an attorney and since they sent you a letter you might have some legal recourse. I just thought I would give you that information. I did not get in again either even with my 83. I think their should be some serious reprimands for this mistake.

Thanks for the info! I was going to talk to the dean of the school and tell the nursing board that gives them their credentials. But I thought about it and I don't want to go to a school that goes back on their word or pulls the rug out from under me. I want a school that has my back! Sorry you didn't get picked! I'm hoping someone is getting fired or something as equally as serious!

I don't want to give much detail but if you got accepted initially please keep an eye on your TCC email today. Especially if you recieved a letter

I hope they offer you guys something for Spring 15. I emailed the school about that idea I posted yesterday and that's when I got the feedback email this morning. Best to the both of you! :)

Didn't even know they redid the lottery till today. I thought the math was off and even talked to a math prof and he thought the same thing and this was the day after the lottery. I did a little math and it wasn't double checked but this is what I got the first time. So this hasn't been validated.... :p

This is for the first lottery

1st line score in 10's (80-89=80)

2nd line number drawn in lottery

3rd line total number of applicants with this score

4th line percent that got in

To me too many 60's got in I think. If it was weighted I would of thought a higher percentage of 70's and 80's would have gotten in more so than the 60's.

Personally I had a weighted score 83 (tied 16th) but got 190's first draw and near dead last this draw :(. I actually got worse. So much for weighted lottery for me.

Just talked to TCC and found out how the percentages worked.

Basically if you have a base of 50, you get a 20% chance to get into the nursing program and if you scored a 100 you had 40%.

So basically it roughly equates to these percentages

100 = 40%

90 = 36%

80 = 32%

70 = 28%

60 = 24%

50 = 20%

40 = 16%

30 = 12%

They say on the TCC Nursing program webpage that they will accept the students who have received the confirmation letter for the Fall quarter.
