Nclex Pass rate for your school

Published

The closest community college to me has a rate of about 75%..and the state average is 84%.

the second closest has a pass rate of 87%..they are about 60 miles from my house.

In your opinion is 75 way to low to be a good school?

what is your schools pass rate?

99% in my school you wont make it through if ur gonna fail the nclex

I must not have looked at the chart that well...because this school is actually NOT the lowest in the state...there are a few scoring in the 60's and even in the 40's! YIKES

These are my schools pass rates 2004-2009

73.93

80.43

74.19

84.78

71.11

75.68

i realize these still arent the best pass rates..but looking at how much other schools are fluctuating in my state..going from 100's to 70's the next year or vice versa...Im starting to think the pass rate really IS what the students themselves put into it.

My school's pass rate was 96.6% with 41% retention and a 78% pass cut-off for all nursing courses. That's for the ADN program. The LPN program's pass cut-off is the same, but the retention is higher at 75% and the pass rate lower (not much lower though) at 95.8%. I don't mind the low retention rate. So far, I'm among a small handful of students at the top of the class. Unless something catastrophic happens, it is unlikely to affect me.

My general impression is, 90-100% is decent, 80-90%...proceed with caution,

I spoke with a recent grad..and she said out of 30 students they had 2 drop second semester..and then they inherited 2 from the class ahead who needed to repeat..and in 4th semester they had 2 not graduate.

Over the past 5 years, the pass rate has been around 94%. In Oregon the standard is 85%. By standard, I mean the schools need to be above 85% on the average.

Passing rate has always been 98% +

I think a school with an NCLEX pass rate that is lower than 84% should not be considered EVER. Nclex pass rates ARE a big deal because it tells you HOW great the program is at teaching its students to pass the NCLEX. Passing the NCLEX-RN is your main objective in nursing school and if at the end of the day their pass rates for the Nclex is low. The program is not as strong as you thought.

From 2007, my university's NCLEX pass rate was a 91.9%. Which is quite good for a school that is 10 min. away by car and sitting in one of the most dangeous cities in the U.S.

I spoke with the director today and was told that the first time pass rates for the last 2 semesters were 86 and 88 percent. so im feeling a lot more confident about my choice.

Our school's current pass rate is 94%. The state ADN pass rate is 89%. We are consistently in the 90's, and our program is highly regarded state-wide for not only NCLEX pass rates, but the quality of our clinical experience too.

56% is the first-time pass rate of the school that I attended.

By the way, I passed NCLEX on my first attempt with the minimum of 75 questions.
