Abstract
This study of NCLEX performance was designed to identify the best risk indices for students who do not pass the test, to pinpoint the earliest time in their academic careers that their risk can substantially be known, and to estimate the effectiveness of a formal review course. Results show that 62% of the variance in NCLEX scores can be predicted with a combination of variables that includes four nursing school course grades, the test scores of the Scholastic Aptitude Test, and National League for Nursing test scores. Whether a student took an NCLEX review course was not a significant predictor of performance. A method of deriving risk estimate from these values is also shown.
