Everest College Ontario RN program

U.S.A. California

Published

Hello all,

I know there are already a couple of posts for this school, but reading through the threads I didn't get all the information that I was looking for and considering that they are pretty old threads I made a new one because I didn't think anyone would look at those anymore. I've already completed all my prereqs at a community college, but I don't want to wait around forever to get into the community college rn program.

Anyways, I wanted to find out for those who are already in the program or have the info. What kind of studying should I do for their entrance exam? What kind of stuff comes in the tests. I also would like to know the cost or estimated cost of the school. And how do they go about choosing the students for the program? What exactly is the application process?

I've already called the school, but the lady that answered the phone wasn't able to give me much info except for that info sessions are in August and the program starts up again in January.

And if you are already in the program, I would like to know how to do you find the teachers to be?? Would you say that this is a good academic choice??

Please help me as I live really far away from this school and I am moving out there just for the program. It is a little difficult for me to just drive over to visit the school. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I'm still wondering how the anatomy and physiology part of the test was?? simple, hard? what kind of stuff.

good question emt anderson...im wondering the same, hey when are u taking urs??

The anatomy and physiology part was fairly tough. It was both subjects combined as one. The actual questions vary for everyone but were very general random questions. I did not pass that part but it only matters if ur transferring units.

As far as the math it was all basic algebra and easier. Know fractions, ratios and volumes such as liters and quarts and such. It was fairly simple.

This is an entry level program so no, there are NO prereqs except a hs diploma.

Interviews are not scheduled yet as there are over a thousand testers scheduled, even tho our testing session was half empty since people didn't bother to show up. They will call for interviews and they will be sometime in october.

I'm scheduled to take mine on the 23 of september. Do we have to pay to take the test???

thank you so much for all of your info! i feel alot better. its a shame that so many people didnt show up when people like me still dont have a test date becuase there wernt spots. i finally get my test date tomorrow so hopefully it works for me. thanks again for your info!

im taking it tomorrow morning, im wondering if there is roman numerals, medical terminology and how hard the math really is?? what formulas should i memorize? i promise i will come back on tomorrow and fill you guys in:)

Guys :-) I am so appreciative of all of your feedback. My exam at Everest is Friday the 17th and I've been studying like crazy. At first I was only studying Math, Reading, Grammar and vocab. But recently I got nervous and started pounding the Chemistry, A&P and bio in my head. Not really sure if those are going to be on the test or even needed. But just wanted to say thanks guys. Please continue to keep me posted on what is expected and how it was if you've taken it :-). I will be on here returning the favor! God Bless :-D

Being on this side of the test, I wish i wouldn't have spent so much time studying. all you need to pass is the math and English. Review basic fractions, porportions, ratios and you will be fine. Some roman numeral questions and conversions (gallons, pints etc.) It's a slow paced test that shows you what u are getting in each section before you move on to the next section. If i were you I wouldn't study the sciences to much, focus attention on the math review. If you don't know the science at this point a few extra days of study aren't really going to help. (wish i would have known that).And you don't need to know them, you will learn them in the program.

Make sure you eat and leave your bags and cell phone in the car. Only allowed your ID and transcripts.

Best of luck.:clown:

Specializes in hospice :P.

Aww, I'm so envious of you all! I really considered going to this school but I changed my mind and picked WCU instead. Anyway, congratulations to those who've already taken the HESI & good luck to those who are going to take it soon!

So does everest college offer all the prerequisite classes needed?

I only have my LVN without micro,chem ect.

Same here. I went to an LVN school but I've never taken any pre-req classes.

Kenichi do you like WCU? im getting really tired of playing games with Everest. All these people got a test date and then half of them dont show up while im sitting here waiting for a test date STILL. im am very dissapointed with Everests lack of organization

You can purchase the HESI exam practice test booklet at Barnes n Noble!!
