They bumped up our minimum passing grade point average...

...from 73 to 75. From some of the posts I've read here in the past, I guess I still have no reason to complain:lol2:

My personal cut off is an 80, but my schools cut off is 74.

So if you get under an 80 do you kick yourself out of the program?? :p

Ours is 77% 85% for B and 94% for an A

Ours is 74. I consider myself lucky because some schools need to have an >80-84!

As one of the 73 percent-ers, I certainly wasn't asking for sympathy :p An 80 minimum would certainly eliminate a few of my classmates, but not many. Personally, I have never averaged less than a 90 in my nursing courses.

oh man, i would give a lot to have our school require only a 75 versus our 77. even if we got a 76.9999 we would still fail! sorry though, i would be frustrated and nervous too if ours was bumped up because 2 points is a big difference.
