Well if you look at the results it has the % passing at your school and the state average. That school seems to be pretty consistently at or right below the state average. It's completely up to you to decide if the program is good enough for you. They wouldn't be allowed to teach and give out nursing degrees if it was just an awful program.

It seems to be a pretty good pass rate. Its not bad and its is above average, so I think your good. The percentage is the amount of students who pass the NCLEX the first time out of the class (2006). So you have to look at it the way you want to as far as what you thin of the school. I know our schools last past rate was 99%. So it is all up to your preferences.
