Our requirements to pass are 82%. That is both exams and course. Anything below 82% you have to meet with the instructor to go over your exam. If we get below an 82% for the class we have to meet with the dean of nursing and see if we are permitted to renter the program again. Very strict with students and expectations are high.

I started this post awhile ago and to say the least I found out that majority of the teachers that teach our program are teaching us at a master's level for our courses. Im not saying that is a bad thing, but to teach us at that level and raise the bar to an 80% is steep. Majority of the students this semester are now failing including myself.
I heard awhile back that my school raised the bar to an 80% and the following semester did not have a high enough return rate or enough students in the classes because so many failed or dropped out that they had to put the average pass rate back down to a 75%

80% In the LPN program I am in. I don't find it too difficult except in adult nursing, right now I am thrilled to maintain my 89 in it, that class is about to eat me alive! I've wondered what the level of difficulty in the curriculum is among the schools with the different grade requirements. I admit that I am fairly obsessive about my grades though.
