ASSIGNMENT: all students are expected to utilize the ATI resources. As such, every student will be required to complete a review of the information within this course and complete the practice post-test. The post-test of the review is expected to be handed into the instructor during the last week of class before the final for the course. The student must achieve a 90% or higher on the printed version which they hand in to the instructor. The student cannot take the final until the review test in handed in (or course work is incomplete). No student can pass the course until the review test and final are completed. It is important to note, the practice test can be taken as many times as the student chooses until the benchmark is achieved and can begin as soon as class begins. Be certain to hand in practice test version B for this assignment.

FINAL EXAM & ATI
Maternal Child Health Nursing ATI=all students must complete the course ATI exam. The proctored exam will have a level 2 assigned as the acceptable level to be completed. If a student achieves a level 3, they will receive 1 extra point on their overall grade for the course. If the student achieves a level 1, they will lose 1 point on their overall grade for the course. If the student achieves below level 1, they will lose 2 points on their overall grade for the course. No student can fail the course using the ATI testing results (the lowest grade achieved based on ATI testing would be 75); additionally, a student must be passing the course to earn the extra ATI points (their final course grade must be at least 75 to earn ATI points)
*All students are required to submit their professional portfolio to their instructor before completion of their junior program segment. No grades or advancement in the program will be provided until the portfolio is submitted. Please see instructor for due dates *
*All students are expected to review their Engrade accounts regularly for their quiz grades and attendance. The email used to create these accounts by the student is the primary form of communication between me and the student. If any student has difficulty with the account, it is his/her responsibility to notify the instructor. Any student who chooses not to utilize the Engrade option therefore assumes all responsibility for their grades and communication with the instructor. PRACTICAL NURSING PROGRAM OBSTETRICAL NURSING
