What is failing at your school?

memphispanda, RN · Feb 25, 2003

There are several requirements to pass at my school.

You have to have a 75 average at the end of the semester.

You have to make 90 or better on your med calc test.

You must be satisfactory in clinical, only 2 areas can be unsatisfactory, and they can't be patient safety, professionalism, or med administration.

less than a 78 is failing.

at the end of the last three semesters, we take a test called hesi. it is different questions every time. the first 2 times you take it, you must score at least an 85%. the third semester, you must score at least a 90%.

in clinical, you must score at least a satisfactory in all areas.

you must score 100% on your med calc test every semester.

Hmm let's see...

You have to have a C or better in any nursing class to pass. A C is a 77. Clinicals and labs are S/U. If you get a U in either of those you fail the course.

We must make a 75 on EVERY test... there is one re-take if you fail the retake you are out... Can only come back to the program once..

Must make a 100 on the Exit Math exam every semester

Clinicals/Paperwork are Pass/Fail

Anything lower than 80% is failing (such as a 79.9%).

Jennerizer, ASN, RN · Feb 25, 2003

Anything less than a 78 average is failing, as well as not passing a clinical skill after 3 tries or not passing the med exam with a 90 or better. We have a HESI at the end of each semester, you have 2 chances to pass that exam or you cannot go on to the next semester.

We are graded on clinicals as pass or fail, we have 2 care plans per class and they are pass or fail.The tests are what I have a hard time with. you must get above 75 on 2 and 84 or better on one. B- is passing.
