Is it fine to say all students in this class passed the examination.

In addition, with "of" use "the":
Most
of the students
Without "of", you don''t need "the":
Most students
But there are some exceptions. For example, "all" is short for "all of", so use "the" even if "of" is not there:
All
of the students in the class
All
the students
in the class
The phrase "in the class" makes "students" specific. That's why "the" is required in that context.
