Nursing School Grading Scale

Published

Specializes in CICU / ICU.

Hello there,

I'm wondering what kind of grading school you have (or had if you're graduated now) in your nursing school. At the University of Portland an A is 95-100, A- is 91-94.9, B+ is 88-90.9, B is 83-87.9, B- is 80-82.9, and a failing score is below 73.

I'm trying to see if this is in-line with other nursing schools in the area. It seems like our A range can be near impossible sometimes. Especially since we don't round up or down (i.e. a 94.82 is a 94.82 or an A-).

Thanks,

Evan

Linfield:

No A+

A= 93-100 Generally no rounding

A-= 90-92.9

B+ = 87 - 89.9

B= 83- 86.9

B- = 80- 82.9

Below 73 is also a fail. I did wish that we had A+ grades to balance out the A- grades.

My nursing school grading scale here in Indiana was this:

A= 93-100

B= 83-92

C= 74-82

Anything under a 74 (with rounding used) was failing although , we had no

A-B+-C+-

Just FYI

At my nursing school:

A = 90 -100%

B = 80 -89%

C = 77 - 79%

Anything lower then a 77% does not pass.

Univ Wisconsin Milwaukee CON (BSN) grades as follows:

A 95-100

A- 93-94

B+ 91-92

B 87-90

B- 85-86

C+ 85-84

C 79-83

Anything below a 79 and you can not progress in the major, and must repeat the class until you earn at least a 79. Not for the faint of heart.
