Who is behind the numbers, and the limits of what each person reviews.

Simmie J., science reviewer

Simmie J. checks that our methods are sound and that the figures on the site match the sources they come from. That covers the ranking formula, how we pool and round pass rates, and spot checks of numbers against state boards, the Department of Education, the Bureau of Labor Statistics and NCSBN.

Her qualifications:

  • Master of Science (MSc) in Chemistry, organic chemistry
  • Bachelor of Science (BSc)
  • Bachelor of Education (B.Ed)
  • General Duty Assistant certificate, awarded through the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) and the Healthcare Sector Skill Council

We do not provide nursing career or licensing advice. The licensing pages quote each state board’s own published rules, and you should confirm them with the board before you apply.

Corrections

If you find a mistake, write to us with the page and the figure. Confirmed errors are fixed and the page’s updated date changes.
