What is failing at your school?

I was just wondering how you failed your program. In my program you can't make less than a 71 on 2 tests during the semester and you have to pass your comprehensive final or you fail the course. I was just curious how his compared to other schools. :)

Specializes in PICU, ICU, Transplant, Trauma, Surgical.

79% average for any nursing class. YIKES! When I started it was 74%. All nursing students must have a 2.0 to stay in the nursing program (haha).

Specializes in New Graduate Nurse.

At Miami Dade College, you have to have at least a 77% to pass, 85% for a B, 93% for an A . There isn't any special requirements for medical math....77% to pass. Clinicals are pass/fail. ATI testing at the end of each semester. 1st semester ATI score does not count.

For skills we get three tries at everything. You have to pass each of your skills to go on to the next semester...but again you get three tries.

Not too hard...but we have lost a few.

Now that the semester is over, I'd have to say the first semester was easier than prerequisites. Next semester is all med/surg....I'm thinkin its gonna get harder.
