Lastest News For Hcc Adn Program

I am not sure but i think you still have to take the Hesi test, because their requirement for the program was to have either the Act/Sat exam or have a degree. I have a degree in art from Hcc and I still have to take the Hesi.

Thanks for the information Betty. Can you give me some insight as to what the HESI test is? I did some research online and I don't understand how one could take the HESI before having any nursing classes. Doesn't it test one's critical thinking skills with nursing material? Thanks.

The Hesi test is just like the Net test but it is called Hesi instead. I took it before at Kingwood college and it includes basic maths like fractions, decimals, add, subtraction, percents, and division. and reading. Another reminder if you have not taken pharmarcology, you need to email the nursing dept to register you because it fills up really fast.I just emailed them today and they have sent me the list of classes available to register for. Goodluck

HESI is the name of a testing company that offers nursing entrance exams, nursing exit exams, and specialty assessment exams. So 9 times out of 10 when someone refers to the HESI on this message board, they are talking about the exit exam. In this situation though, it sounds like the HESI entrance exam (which measures skills in math, vocabulary, reading comprehension, etc - as opposed to applied nursing knowledge) is actually what the school requires for admission.
