We seem compared to others here to have it easier,but we were told to keep our As at the door, and the class average should be less then a 80 or the test way too easy.

C 69.5-79.4

B 79.5-89.4

A 89.5-100

I know there are + and -, but don't know exactly

Anything less then a 69.5 is failing.

90-100=A

85-89.9=B

80-84.9=C

Makes test time stressful!

94-100 a

88-93 b

80-87 c

At the LPN program I applied to a 77% and below is a failing grade.

Anything under a 78% is failing...

I wish to god our school would round. People have failed for a tenth of a point. We only get what we earn, PERIOD. Plus our test scores must met the minimum before any other points are added. So, if you don't pass the test you cant use your points from assignments to bring you up to a passing grade.

93-100=A

84-92=B

75-83=C

Anything less than 75 is failing

This is our system too. If you get less than a 76 average then you fail.

I got my degree in Sweden so the grading system is a bit different.

90-100 = "Pass with honours"

75-89,99 = Pass

The exception was dosage calculation. Three exams (one each during year one, two and three with 30 to 40 questions/calculations on each exam) where:

100 = Pass

Anything less than 100 = Fail.

The rationale for this was that making a med error on every tenth or other random number of patients is not acceptable.

This was our exception also. We had 4 dosage calcualation tests where you had to score a 100 on. We had someone fail it in the last semester.

Here you fail if you score below 78% or 83%, depending on the course level. Yuck.

Ours is a minimum of 76% to pass. As start ay 93%.

Our exception was also the dosage calc. tests. Had to get 95% to pass..which is like missing 1 question.

In my lpn program you have to pass with a 70 & you have to avg @ least a 70 on each test before any other points are added at the end.
