If the student fails the second attempt of the Clinical Competency Evaluation, what is the next step?

• A. Dismissal
• B. Remedial Exercises and One Additional Attempt
• C. Retake Without Remediation
• D. No Further Attempts Allowed

Answer: (B)

When a student fails the Clinical Competency Evaluation on the second attempt, the next step is to undergo remedial exercises and be given one additional attempt. This setup provides focused practice to address the specific deficiencies identified during the evaluation, giving the student a fair chance to demonstrate competence after targeted remediation. The idea is to correct the gaps before awarding another opportunity to meet the required standards. Other options skip this needed remediation or prematurely end progress, but the policy typically emphasizes remediation plus one more chance to prove competency.
