    GoneFishN replied to pacey03's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  8. Nclex pass rate

    GoneFishN replied to CNM2B201?'s topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Of course 87% pass rate at the farther cc is ideal but if location/transportation/time/finances is a factor then 75% pass rate at the closer school would be fine with me. I would just hope to put it...
