I went to Nursing school in Sacramento CA at one of the toughest nursing schools in all of California, the notoriouse Sacramento City College. In fact some people here in Northern California joke that they don't make nurses at Sac City they make Marines who also know nursing. All the joking aside, the school was very challenging and our class valadictorian had a cumulative B- grade, the rest of us had C averages. Yet when we went to take the NCLEX exam all of us passed on our first attempt. Sac City had no problem telling me before I signed up, when I asked the administrators about their first attempt pass rate, what it was for their school and they also told me there are reasons why they have had a 100% first attempt pass rate for the 8 years prior to my going there. I cannot imagine why they would not do that in AZ unless they were somehow embarrassed to say what their pass rate is.

Thank you for sharing this experience with us. I have found that sometimes in life, the experiences that grow us the most tend to be the ones that we would like to forget but cannot. In this situation it is undoubtedly clear to most of us that you were manipulated and maybe even bullyed into following the course of action that you followed. The positive outcome of all this is that you can and are sharing your experience in a way that teaches us all something about how to make our practice better. If it is emotional redemption that you seek I can not imagine a more earnest or sincere way for you to gain it than the way you are doing so now .
