Claim 1:
2. The method as set forth in claim 1 further including the step of applying a programming pulse to a control gate of the selected word line and applying a first quick pass write (QPW) voltage to at least one bit line coupled with the at least one memory cell in response to a determination in a previous program-verify iteration that the at least one memory cell has a threshold voltage between the first and second verify low voltages VL1, VL2 and applying a second QPW voltage to the at least one bit line coupled with the at least one memory cell in response to a determination in a previous program-verify iteration that the at least one memory cell has a threshold voltage between the second verify low voltage VL2 and the verify high voltage VH and wherein the second QPW voltage is greater than the first QPW voltage.
