Hey, y'all. I'm taking the HESI march 29th and I'm so nervous. Exactly what sections are on the HESI, do you guys know? I bought a practice book from Amazon and it has physics in it and I'm about to have a panic attack!

I just finished my exam today.

Subsections are:

biology

math

reading comprehension

vocabulary

grammar

I just used the book they had in the bookstore, ISBN 0323353789 along with an app called Pocket Prep. I started studying a week in advance, you'll be fine.

I'm not sure what everyone else's experience was, but once I took the exam I felt like throwing up because I thought I did poorly, but my scores came out great. The testing experience really messes with you, you have 4 hours to take it.

Congrats @randomtesla! What were your scores or overall. Did you see similar questions that were in the book and pocket prep app?

I made a 94.8 I'm sure they'll just count it as a 94.

There were similar questions in the math and english related sections.

Grammar was much easier than the book or app. Biology I felt was much harder than either resource, there were even some anatomy questions in the biology section. I felt like reading comprehension was the most frustrating one over all, but I also took it last and I may have just been exhausted at that point. :(

Oh ok @randomtesla, probably should've taken that one first

Maybe? I did math first, and that one ended up taking me the longest. I thought it would take me the least amount of time. You live and learn I guess.

Math 55

Biology 30

Reading Comprehension 55

Grammar 55

Vocab 30

I think vocab was 30. I don't remember it being very long, but I might be wrong and it may be 55.

Does anyone happen to have a copy of the nursing application assessment form?

I vaguely remember there being a pdf where you could see how many points your application would get based on your scores and gpa to see where you stand, but I can't seem to find it anymore. Or am I thinking of another school?
