The review reports, citing Sanderson et al. (2022), that "those who fail two nursing courses are twice as likely to fail their first NCLEX‐RN" than those failing one or none, which informed dismissal decisions in that model.

"dismissal decisions were made since those who fail two nursing courses are twice as likely to fail their first NCLEX‐RN compared to those who fail one nursing course or never fail a nursing course (Sanderson et al., 2022)."
