most of my nursing class failed NCLEX

Oh my. Hopefully they will get a year to redeem themselves. Congrats to you though!

So I went to a very well known school that shall remain nameless for now. Basically I passed my nclex at 208 questions PRAISE THE LORD for that but 48 of 60 students in my class failed the nclex. That is right 48 of 60 students... So what does that mean for my school???[/quote']

Oh my :/ what state is this in?

Did you know the nclex passing rate of your school before attending? I believe our is between 95-98%. I only know of two people who did not pass. Everybody else has passed or have not taken the exam yet.

I would be very interested to know the passing rate prior to this year. Also, were there warning signs prior to the NCLEX (such as many people struggling to pass classes)?

I know my school has a 95+% passing rate and work very hard to keep it that way. Your school will probably have to explain themselves and show they are going to make changes to keep that from happening again.

So far my class has 100% pass only one person ...me ... has taken the exam so far haha... we graduated ju e 16, but my school average 85% for around 80 to 90 students per year... 48/60 failing is scary, hope it won't affect your schools accreditation!

My school has 98.3% pass rate and in the last 3 years it was 100%. It's in the school catalog and I verified with the state before enrollment. Sounds like something went really wrong with your class...glad you passed and congratulations! Maybe your classmates didn't study???

If you look at the CA BRN NCLEX passing rates, CSUF has a 100% passing rate because only one person took the NCLEX that year, haha. I always tell people - when you look at the passing rates, be sure to look at "number of candidates" as well because I've seen like 50% passing rates and only two students took the test that year.

Out of 21 we had one fail, two who didn't take it until between one and two years post-graduation, and everyone else passed. The class before us had most of their students fail, so they were forced by the state board to come up with a remediation plan and implement it, because at least 75-80% of students had to pass the nclex the first try. They may not shut your school down, but the school might have to do the same thing my school did.

How did you prepare for the nclex? With such odds I am curious.
