Bergen Community College Day Program

U.S.A. New Jersey

Published

So, I just got past my application with Bergen and have submitted to my background check. I know there is nothing there that is going to come up so I wanted to ask some questions about the test. Is it the NET test? For which ever test it is what is the best way to prepare for it.

If I get into the program I was wondering if anyone knew if my credits from a pervious college would transfer over or would i have to take the classes over. I have my math, psychology, sociology, and some other classes from a 4 year college I had gone to and left for the Bergen Nursing program because my previous school didn't have. If anyone has any sort of tis or anything I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

Hey! I know this really isn't answering any of your questions and it's probably too late, but their requiring you take the HESI?

Also, have you heard back from them at all? I feel like this is a really long wait and I can never get anyone on the phone...

Thanks!

Good luck! I was under the impression all the tests had to be completed by the end of March...maybe I misread lol. Anyway, it's not terrible, the bio, chem, and anatomy were the hardest parts. Don't worry though because the class average scores weren't that great.

hey do you know what the scores were like i took my test today and didn't do to well with my sciences and i'm getting kind of worried

Hey! Yeah actually they're all around the sixties/seventies. Like honestly I was sooo worried about anatomy because I had never taken it before and I got a 72. Then I saw that the class average was like 62 and I wasn't that concerned.

Do you have any idea when they send out their final decisions?

well i know the last set of tests has to be completed by tomorrow. How did you find out about the class averages

Evolve, the testing company, emailed me at the end of March with my scores and the average class scores. What's weird is Bergen told me (I double checked the paper to make sure I wasn't losing my mind) that the testing had to be done by the last day of March. I guess they extended it? So I'm assuming if they extended it until April then evole will give you the updated class averages like in the next week?

Hey! I decide to copy the class averages for you since they've been updated...

Math 81

Reading Comprehension 73

Grammer 80

Vocabulary 66

Chemistry 59

Biology 59

Anatomy 58

Hope that helps some!

Are you all talking about the entrance test? I was under the impression that the HESI was an exit examination, given to determine eligibility to take the NCLEX-RN. I received a letter dated April 28th instructing me to schedule my entrance test at a Prometric Center by May 12th... you guys have got me scared now. Did I miss something???

I wonder why some people were allowed to take the test later than others...I was told to take mine by the end of March and would have loved to have been able to wait until May and study a bit.

But anyway lol the prometric entrance exam required by Bergen is called the HESI Admissions Asessment. I believe that schools use it as check up exams and exit exams as well. This is just a different type of entrance exam.

Haha unless of couse I'm terribly confused and took the HESI exit exam for fun....which is always possible with me :)

Good luck though!
