We have had 3 exams in Nursing and 2 return demo's.
The way our classes are graded, is each test is worth 25 points. 20 is passing...so as long as you are making above 20, you have a C.
One of my classmates, Phi Beta Kappa student, 3.6 GPA, has to make a minimum of 23 on the REMAINDER of our exams in order to pass the course, and she is pretty certain that it will be an impossibility.
I can't believe that in only three exams, even our instructors have told us that many students are one test away from being told they need to withdraw.
I am so sad. She is beautiful, smart, hardworking, she has no idea of what she is doing wrong.
It just broke my heart today.
