Abstract:
Nursing student success is important to students, faculty, higher education, and health care as the nursing shortage continues. However, baccalaureate nursing graduation rates average 80 to 84 (National League for Nursing, n.d.; Texas Center for Nursing Workforce Studies, 2017). Research exploring increased student success is attributed to competitive admission of students highly successful in prerequisite coursework. There is a gap in the literature regarding students' experiences of failure in didactic nursing courses. This article explores why previously successful students experience didactic failure in BSN course.
