Hi! I am applying to BRCC, and I take the hesi next week!!! I am so nervous, and I don't know what to expect. Can you give me a general idea of what the test was like, and what book you used to study? Thanks in advance!

Hey!! I applied for the fall also and take my HESI on the 24th. A girl in my A&P class took it today and I will see her tonight. I'll ask her and get back with you. Good Luck!!!

Thank you so much, and good luck to you too! I wanted to take it on the 24th, but it was full.

You're welcome!! From what I have read, most of the material is basic. I need to score really well because I will have a 3.6 GPA after this semester (I made a C in algebra forever ago when I took it).

OMG That's exactly what I have because I made a C in Algebra!!! I didn't know that so many people had 4.0's. I had no idea that it was so competitive...

Yes, It is competitive but... they really want you to take your pre-reqs at BRCC and to test well on the HESI. I have read a few other threads from years past, and it seems like they have taken 3.0 GPA's before. I also think it depends on the applicants they receive. I am nervous about it though.

I called and asked them if they prefer applicants who have taken their pre reqs at BRCC because so many people have told me that, but they said it doesn't matter... I haven't taken any there, so I should probably start exploring other options! í ½í¸

LOL. Well go by what they told you.. That is just what I have read from other people on this site. I'm sure you will do great on the HESI and I know that is a big part of it!

I'm sure they choose from BRCC's students first, and I believe that's fair. I have 10 days until my test, so I might look for other books at BRCC's bookstore. It seems like it's been a good resource for students in the past ( I got mine from Amazon).

Yeah.. I got my HESI study book from the library at BRCC.. going to really start studying this weekend. I have been taking HESI practice tests and quizzes online, but I've heard the one in the BRCC library is a good one to study from.
