I was just wondering how you failed your program. In my program you can't make less than a 71 on 2 tests during the semester and you have to pass your comprehensive final or you fail the course. I was just curious how his compared to other schools. :)

Specializes in Pediatrics.

Must pass medical math w/95 or better, tests above 70 is passing and must get a C in the class to continue to the next, also if you get 2 unsatisfactory clinical days you fail the class.

Specializes in Emergency.

at my school passing is

74% on all exams including comprehensive finals

satisfactory on all clinical paperwork

satisfactory of clinical rotation

and satisfactory on all the little presentations and stuff they throw in there.

85% on the dosage calc test

In my school you need a C to pass which is a 73.

Anything below a 77 is failing in my program....* which I have yet to get accepted into!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (sorry, lost it for a minute)

75 & above is passing at my school. Being remediated twice on a skill or receiving 2 variances in clincal will also get you pulled from the program.

A fail is anything below a C (63.5 - 67.9) for nursing theory and clinicals and you must maintain a 2.50/4.00 GPA to continue on. A pass for a med exam is 90% and above.

Not kissing instructor butt, not being a devout priss, having an opinion- all this is failing at my school

That's funny:roll lmao....but I know those are unspoken/unwritten rules in a number of nursing programs.

Although I haven't heard any rumors about my program in particular ...people have told me to practice my "pucker" to get ready for all that "kissing":kiss

At Tulsa Community College, you have to pass all theory/lab exams with at least an average of 75.45, pass competencies but with 3 trials, pass care plans with at least a 76 but not counted if theory/lab exams are less than 75.45 , and community papers, pass clinicals with no more than 2 "U's", and all other components with a pass/fail. For some reason my delete button isn't working. e 3 .e

Hi,

You must pass each theory class with a 70% or better. Each quarter you must also pass a dosage calculation test at 90%, you can retake these tests twice. If you do not pass, you are out. Clinicals are pass or fail. I think you are allowed to come back once to the program to repeat what you have failed.

Two D's and your out, most D's are

In order to advance to pass Levels. Must have 80% + pass on all clinical experiences on a scale of 1-5 (must have at least a 3 to pass clincial). In addition, pass or fail on Dos. Cal for our Level 1.

Level 2 is next semester...
