A follow-up study of 1975 Los Angeles City College nursing program graduates was conducted to determine the degree of success achieved by the graduates on the State Board Test Pool Examination, to compare the achievement of 1975 graduates to that of 1974 and 1973 graduates, to assess their degree of success in obtaining employment, to determine earning power and attitudes toward the program, and to ascertain the graduates' recommendations for improvement of the nursing program. A total of 72 graduates were studied, of which 61 passed the State Examination on their first attempt (85%) and 66 (92%) passed after two attempts. The 1975 graduates did not do as well as the preceding two classes which had pass rates of 95% and 96% on the State Examination. A follow-up questionnaire was sent to the 1975 graduates and 28% responded. Results indicated that all of the respondents were employed, most as team leaders, and most were employed as medical/surgical nurses. Modal salary was $900-$999 per month. All but one of the respondents indicated plans to continue their education. Most graduates felt that the teaching staff and medical/surgical training were program strengths but that more experiential training was needed. Student comments are included. (JDS)
