 LVN programs were assessed on several factors which represent how well a program supports students toward licensure and beyond. Past and present NCLEX-PN “pass-rates” are reviewed and weighted by year. To learn more about the methodology used visit http://www.practicalnursing.org/lvn-lpn-ranking-methodology  

 The NCLEX-PN exam is used by state boards of nursing around the country for testing proficiency and granting licensure. Many state boards of nursing use the combined NCLEX-PN exam pass rates for each school as one of the primary ways to approve or deny a school's ability to provide practical and vocational nursing education. PraticalNursing.org has determined NCLEX-PN rates is one of the best ways to know how well a school is preparing their students for a career in practical nursing.
