exit HESI

Published

Specializes in emergency, transplant.

I'm a LPN in a RN program and this is my last semester. I have to pass an exit Hesi with at least 850. Has anyone taken it. if so what's the best way to study. i'm sorta freaking out here...lol

I use the book called Evolve Reach Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN Examination( I went through this whole book and answer all the practice questions), i also use the nclex-rn 3500( I answer about 500 of these questions before i took the test), i also bought the book called saunders strategies for success for the nclex-rn examination( This book was really helpful. It teaches you how to answer nclex style questions and it also has alot of practice questions).

I was having alot of difficulty passing the Hesi so I decided to just answer as many practice nclex style questions from as many nclex books and websites as i could find. If when I looked at a question and did not know the answer, I would go back and review that topic in my nursing school textbook.This help me alot. You need to become comfortable with answering these types of questions. I study and answer questions for about a month before I took the test.

I hope this information helps you and good luck. Just keep practicing those questions and you'll do GREAT!!

I had to take that exam at my school. The only thing in my opinion is to just do questions. The hesi book is a joke and it isn't set up properly I ended tossing it to the side and just used a saunders review book. When you actually sit for the exam its either you know the stuff or you don't and you can always narrow your answers down to two.

Good luck with your studies
