I took the HESI at FAU and they gave us paper and there was a calculator built into the program. The test was simple, as long as you passed A&P. There were actually a LOT of mistakes written into the questions and I'm definitely writing to the testing company about it... Ex: "What hormone is made by the pituitary gland?" One option was ADH. One was Oxytocin. And then two wrong answers. ??? Also a lot of errors in the grammar section and a few in the vocab, too. Drove me nuts because I've been teaching English for the past ten years.

Anyway... I didn't buy the study guide and didn't prepare at all and I scored an overall of 95% with my individual areas scoring between 90% (reading comp) and 100% (math, grammar, vocab).

I was wondering if someone could tell me exactly how the point system works. I can't find any information about it on their site. I'm applying for the fall semester next week and I have a good GPA and straight A's in my pre-reqs so I'm wondering what that translates to into points.

Here is a link to the old page that appeared on the Dept. of Nursings website regarding point calculation and how it is calculated in relation to the admission process. Please note this may be old and does not address the HESI so this may no longer be correct but can serve as a point of reference

So based on your 4.0 in prereqs and assuming a broward resident you should have 17 pts
