I, together with 4 group mates, am doing a research on the relationship of the scholastic performance of Filipino nursing students to their rating in the Nurse Licensure Exam (NLE).

Dec 14, 2007 "Old School" nurse here, but thought I'd post so here goes: Sex: MAge: late thirties, pushing fortyGrades: (from an older BSN curriculum)Level II - Fundamentals with Maternal and Child Health NUR 101: 2.0 NUR 102: 2.0Level III - Med-Surg, High Risk Maternal-Child, Psych NUR 103: 2.75 NUR 104: 2.5Level IV - Leadership, Management, Research NUR 105: 2.5 NUR 106: 2.25Elective Nursing Practice: 2.0Graduation Date: March 21, 1991School: CEU-Manila2nd Degree: NoLength of time reviewing for NLE: 3 monthsNLE date: June 1991NLE rating: 82.2%As you can see, I didn't have the best grades during my BSN. Part of that is because of the school I went to. Nobody from the nursing school at CEU makes it to the honor roll or dean's list at the time. They are way too stingy when it comes to grades. It may have changed now. Anyway, I still did OK in my NLE and my nursing career in general. Even got accepted and graduated from an MSN program in the US.
