Nursing program completion · California BRN
Do students finish?
A pass rate only counts the students who reach the exam. Of every 100 who start, this is how many finish on time and then pass the NCLEX on the first try.
California BRN: Students who completed in the academic year ÷ students scheduled to complete that year. We use the median of the three most recent reported years; the board reports one figure for all of a school’s prelicensure degrees.
