NCLEX Pass Rates For Charlotte Area Nursing Programs

U.S.A. North Carolina

Published

I looked on the NCBON website just to check the NCLEX pass rates for Charlotte area programs over the last five years. I was both surprised and somewhat disappointed. Of course, Mercy School of Nursing had the best avg over the last five years. That is understandable since it is a diploma school so you would expect that nursing skills would be exceptional. What really disappointed me was Queens and Presby at Queens. For the last five years the scores have really been somewhat low. I wonder why that is? Those were the programs that I was really considering put if I'm not going to be taught enough to pass the NCLEX why bother? I encourage anyone looking into nursing programs to check the pass rates. For NC, just go to NCBON.org and click on Data Request/Statistics and it will list the pass rates for the last five years for every school that has a nursing program. It also list the LPN Pass rates also.

Cabarrus College of Health Sciences in Concord always has a high pass rate! Our school tests have always been rated harder than the NCLEX from past students.

Great school! :)

Our final semester we had clinicals and class lectures on ICU. We rotated and took patients in the CCU, MICU an and SICU. I did my preceptorship in the CCU as well. Our instuctor had many years in the CCU so he was passionate about it.
