Testing and Grading:<br />

Written tests are given throughout classroom study. Subject matter for written tests is theory and<br />

state law. An average grade of 80% represents minimum satisfactory progress. Practical grades<br />

are determined from practical project sheets completed by the students. Each completed project<br />

must be approved and initialed by an instructor. The projects may be performed on a clinic<br />

patron, another student, or a mannequin. A comprehensive final examination is given prior to<br />

graduation and prior to taking the state board examination.<br />

The grading scale is based on the following numerical system:<br />

A = 100% C = 89.87-86.85%<br />

B+ = 99.99-96.95% D+ = 86.84-83.10%<br />

B = 96.94-93.91% D = 83.00-80.00%<br />

C+ = 93.90-89.88% F = 79% or below<br />

Students failing to maintain minimum grades and/or failing tests on a regular basis will be<br />

required to counsel with school officials. The counseling session will determine whether the<br />

student will be allowed to continue under probationary conditions or terminated.<br />

Probationary periods are allowed and the length of time is determined by the school officials and<br />

is based on each student’s circumstances. If allowed to re-enter school, it will be on a<br />

probationary status.<br />

Permanent records are kept on file regarding the progress of a student’s work on the clinic floor.<br />

Grades are furnished to the student so he/she can stay informed as to his/her progress.<br />
