NURSING 222 – COURSE GRADING
I. Academic Grading Scale - A minimum grade of “C” is required to progress to the next
nursing course.
A = 90 - 100%
B = 80 - 89%
C = 75 - 79%
II. Theory Grading:
2 Exams at 60 points each ……………………………………..120 points
Final cumulative exam at 100 points ………………………100 points
Pharmacology Test ……..………………………………………..….10 points
ATI Maternal Newborn Nursing……………..……….……..……3 points
Postpartum Teaching Presentation & Paper …………......CR/NC
Labor and Delivery Paper ……………………………………........5 points
Newborn Assessment Paper …………………………………........5 points
Medication Administration Test* ……………………………… CR/NC
Observational Experience Papers .............................................CR/NC
TOTAL POINTS for exams only………..220
Required to attain 75% =
165
TOTAL POINTS including projects = 243
*Calculators may used on Medication Administration Test, not Theory exams
III. Course Rules and Regulations
A. In order to achieve a passing grade in N222 a student must have a minimum of 75% on the three
tests. If the student has not achieved an average of 75% on the three tests the student will not
progress to N231 and must repeat N222. After this criteria is met, the written papers will be
averaged in to determine the overall grade for N222. A minimum grade of “C” is the overall
passing grade.
B. Failure to complete any of the above assignments for N222 will result in a grade of “Incomplete”
for the course. All clinical papers are due to the clinical instructor one week after the clinical
experience. For papers that are worth points, one point will be deducted for each working day
that the paper is late. A pattern of turning in papers late will result in a grade of “NO PASS” on
the clinical evaluation form in the section dealing with professional role. 1 point will be deducted
for every 5 misspellings, grammar and punctuation errors. Every project is to have a face sheet,
use APA and follow the Student Handbook Guidelines.
C. Clinical Lab Grading: Clinical performance is graded on a Pass/No Pass basis. 96% of all starred
criteria must be passed and 100% of those which are double starred. In addition, all students
must pass the section entitled “Clinical Nursing Competencies Measured in All Aspects of Care”
and the skills lab competency evaluation on medication administration to a newborn. A student
who receives a NO PASS as a final clinical grade will not be permitted to progress to N231. A “No
Pass [NP] clinical grade nullifies the final theory grade.
All students will participate in the performance-based Competency Assessment Day as part of
their clinical experience.
15
D. Testing: A 5% penalty will be assessed to any student taking a test in this course other than on
the test date. The test makeup must be completed within one week of the test date. The student
is responsible for notifying the faculty that they will be taking the test at another time and for
rescheduling. Medication administration tests are given per the policy outlines in the student
handbook.
E. N225: Students are required to attend weekly skills lab. Students must call the instructor if they
will be absent to arrange for makeup.
F. N808 (Open Lab): Students are required to attend lab hours in order to receive course credit.
Students must sign in in order to receive credit for the hours attended. N808 is a required course.
In order to proceed to the next nursing course, students must receive credit (pass) in N808.
G. Attendance
N222: May miss no more than 2 theory classes/8 weeks
N225: May miss no more than 2 skills lab sessions/16 weeks
