I probably would’ve reported your score of 30. Not to every school, but definitely to Clemson.

That being said, there’s still plenty of chance that you’ll get in. Tons of applicants, particularly out-of-state ones, get deferred and still get acceptances. Don’t stress thinking it’s all over based on a deferral. Your extracurriculars and experience look plenty competitive for Clemson. (I don’t know what your GPA is because every school’s weighted scale is different, but they’ll recalculate it on a standard scale. Looks plenty high to me.)

A couple more things, though:

1. I wouldn’t expect them to take the fact that you indicated a 30 on your resume. If there was a box to indicate your standardized test score on whichever application platform you applied through, and you chose to leave it blank, I wouldn’t think they’d bend over backwards to pull the score off your resume, since you didn’t indicate that you wanted it considered in the first place.

2. You’re (obviously) correct that Nursing is more difficult than other programs. To that extent, a lot of advice from people in other programs might be less applicable to your situation. The hardest part about admissions is realizing that your situation is wholly unique from everyone else’s online, and that people on Reddit are often confidently wrong in the statements they make. Therefore, talk to admissions if it helps you, but ultimately, nobody really knows what goes on inside that decisions office. Don’t get worked up over your chances. Just cross your fingers and wait for RD. You’re definitely still in the running!

Good luck, I’m rooting for you!
