I know I am reading this a little late but I could help but to ask myself. I took my first hesi in may and failed it I was very anxious and don't remember much from the exam it's like a big blank couple of hours. After to talking to some of the students that took it with me the second time we decided that it was totally different than the 1st one we took two weeks ago. Does anybody think that the focus on the exam is different, I found the third version (we took it out of order) which was my second version was more focused on community nursing. I really thought I passed that time, I am stuck in remediation as we speak and even though I have been doing questions in saunders it worries me and I wonder what this other test will bring. Is it true that as it progresses it becomes harder in difficulty or do you guys believe that it just changes focus? I have tried to look for info out there but there is nothing really out there in cyberspace.

My next showdown with the hesi is at the end of the month in case you are wondering and according to the director we will be taking version 4 because she said student's have told her that version 2 is harder.

Thanks for reading and posting, it's encouraging to see your posts. I am hoping you will see my success story at the end of the month.

oh gosh Im in the same boat, I have taken this HESI twice already failing both tiimes! I didn't even increase my score I scored the exact same! So disappointing, they won't release my diploma, if I don't pass this last time in Mid July, I will have to take my entire last yr. of nursing over! Who wants to do that? We are now doing a remediation which should of been given a long time ago, hoping that they won't have to see our faces over again. Im very scared and discouraged, not sure what will happen.

busy5kids, what school do you go to? I go to drexel and we need a 950 to pass and get our diploma. I'm taking my 2nd attempt today...and I hope I pass it. I am so frustrated that I worked so hard for four years and won't get my diploma if I don't get a 950 (or 87%) on this exit hesi...that is ridiculous!

Oh my, how did you do? We only had to make an 850 or higher, wow you had to make a whole 100 pts higher then us, scary. I understand your frustration...I will be taken my last shot at this on July 20th, I leaving it in God's hands, he knows me and my family situation and everything we have scarificed to get to this point. I feel I can a job at arms reach, but I can't grasp it yet. Where is drexel?

drexel is in philadelphia and i'm happy to report I got a 92% so I passed. Good luck, you know your stuff, just practice doing the questions and how to read what hesi wants fromyou. i'm sorry to hear about your family situation I know how much home life can truly impact your ability to stay focused.

I agree, 950 is a VERY HIGH score to have to achieve!!! I think that score is unrealistic given the fact the years ago nurses didn't even have exit exams. Our class originally needed 850 but was eventually lowered to 825. Thank goodness or I fear more than half of us would still be trying to pass at 950. Good luck to you.
