I am mostly set on Baylor's ABSN too though the $ is a factor. This is a late career change for me & I have a kid in college right now plus another in high school. I have been looking into Texas Tech's ABSN though I can only enroll to start in Jan 2022 since they require TEAS & some other stuff which would take time.

I wish we didn't have any bible course to do for Baylor. Where are you all getting that credit from? I will probably get it at Wayland.

I looked at TWU, UTA & TCU but TWU is extremely competitive, UTA prefers you do prereqs there & TCU has other prereqs & my communication with their advisor was a hit or a miss. To date, Baylor's advisor has been top notch & very communicative. I really like that so I may stick with them. I just need to figure out the tuition.

@Charlotte25 What did you think about the vocabulary and grammar section? Did you receive a high score?

I'm ONLY interested in Baylor's Fastbacc for now.

@Delta. I completed the HESI 2 weeks ago. Vocab (96) & Grammar (100) was quite easy in my opinion. If you have a decent command of English, then you should do great! Reading Comprehension was the trickiest.

@Delta I didn't think they were too bad! I got a 94 on vocab and a 92 on grammar. I thought the reading comp section was the hardest out of the english sections, but still managed to get a good score. Math was definitely the easiest I thought! Lots of ratio/proportion problems and fractions.

Does anyone know if admissions is on a rolling basis? I am not applying until after I take the HESI early September. Also how many students do they let in each year?

@Taylor,

I believe it is rolling because I won't apply till later in Sept too since I am waiting to finish 2 more prereqs. The application is open till Jan 15 anyway. During the info session, they said they take in about 70 ish students and I got the impression they don't cap. If your application & scores are good & you do well in the interview, then it seemed like it would be a shoo-in.

What study material did you use for vocabulary and grammar?

Great scores @Charlotte25

@Delta thank you! I used the review book that Elsevier sold and the one that they shared on Baylor's website!
