to be honest no. I found the website easier on the eyes.
I'm sorry that it's difficult on your eyes, maybe I shouldn't have color coded it and it would have been easier. For me I like color coding because it stands out more. Sorry if it hurt your eyes. Thanks for the input.
no need to be sorry. I am sure its going to help other people. GJ on doing it too

i found this website the other day. yes, its very helpful. just the green hurts my eyes, lol.
i did save this website to my laptop, home computer and my phone. lol. soon i will be applying to rn programs. thanks!
you will be happy to know that originally the green was changed from [color=yellow]yellow hahaha. i will know for next time to stay away fom the green and maybe try for the olive green instead. for some reason right now it wont let me edit and i don't know why.

Wow...that's crazy...although they've had such few students.
Thanks for the info, it's really interesting to look at (and the colors are a nice touch!)

To be clear these are the % of students that passed the NCLEX not the % of students that made it through the program. Its an important distinction. For Example Chabot has a 97.3% passing rate for the NCLEX which sounds great until discovering that 60% of students who entered the program actually graduated. I found that the number of students that survive a given program is not as easy to find as the NCLEX rate. Hope this helps.
