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. :)
i think it's interesting that some schools demand 80% or better as pass. are those BSN programs?

Hello everyone!
I am brand spanking new to this board and this will be my first post.
I am going to school in Illinois and the school I am in is an RN program and you are required to get an 80% or better on all exams. We have 2 papers due in the semester, you have to get a 2 in clinicals and lab and MUST pass the competency exams. You get one chance to retake them, but if you fail them the second time you have to retake the course regardless of what your grade was. An A in this school is like 94 to 100 %.

When I was attending an LVN program 2 years ago, any score below 78 percent was considered a failing grade.I was just wondering how you failed your program.

In my program any grades anything below 77% is failing. All clinicals must be passed and it is a pass/fail grade only we have a skills lab as well and that is pass/fail also. The grading system at my school is also different than most. (We are also charged $50/hr if we miss clinical and need to make it up...YIKES!)
A 95-100
A- 92-94
B+ 89-91
B 86-88
B- 83-85
C+ 80-82
C 77-79

also one person said her school considered a C to be in the 60's (63% to 67% i think it read) I have never heard of that kind of scoring system. Has anyone else? Where is that from?
