FSCJ Summer 2017 Hopefuls

Published

I wanted to create a new thread for Summer 2017 hopefuls (it seems far away, but it will be here before we know it).

I am very excited to start this journey, but I have to finish a few more prereqs. I am wanting to buy a HESI A2 study book, but I am not sure which one to go with. Does anyone have any suggestions? I saw on one thread where a lady swore by Elsevier, but I want to make sure that is a good one before I buy it. Thanks in advance.

When you go take the test there's an "instructional video" before the test and it says it then

I'm not sure if FSCJ allows you to retake a "C" :( but from my understanding I believe you can retake the class at another school (St johns, unf. etc) and that could replace your score!! If I were you, I would apply anyways.. doesnt hurt to try!! Dont give up, you got this!

I heard that through a post on this website. That's wrong though. You have to make a 75% or higher on the hesi to apply for the LPN program.

I asked the nursing department and they said you can apply with a score lower than 75% for RN! They only go by points. Not pass or fail.

I am completing my AP2 class right now. Currently I applied for spring but with 181.2 total points. If its too low I will reapply for summer with an expected 199.2 points. I will keep you all posted.

Well folks I was declined. Good luck to you all though.

Sorry to hear it. I was placed on the alternate list. They sent out a blanket email stating that alternates either had not completed all pre-reqs or were enrolled in a pre-req during the summer term. I completed my pre-reqs a year ago, so I'm not satisfied with the explaination. I'm expecting a call from someone in the FSCJ school of nursing today to go over my application. I would reach out directly if you have questions.

This may be a stupid question- but on the HESI A2, for the math portion, is there a computer calculator we are allowed to use for that portion? I am signing up for my exam (so nervous!) and was just curious about that. Thank you guys!!

I was worried about the same thing but to answer your question yes there's a calculator on the computer you can use. Good luck!!!

Hello All!

Best of luck with your applications! I am currently in my 4th term at FSCJ, graduating December 12, 2016. I have two HESI books that I am selling:

HESI Admission Assessment Exam Review Ed. 3 (Elsevier - same one they sell in the bookstore) $30 ISBN:9781455703333

McGraw Hill's 3 Evolve Reach (HESI) A2 Practice Tests $5 ISBN: 9780071800570

Both books have a moderate amount of high lighting and annotations. They both helped me immensely on the HESI A2.

Hi guys! I applied to the SJR program and plan on applying for the 2017 Summer term at FSCJ just in case and have a few questions!

I was wondering what the HESI requirements are to apply.. What sections do we have to complete? SJR Spring only required Math, Reading/Comp, Vocabulary, and Grammar. I got an overall score of 94%.

Also, for the CPR certification, can it be completed online or does it have to be in the classroom? And should I sign up for the BLS Healthcare course or the Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED course?

Could someone send me the packet with the application requirements as well? The website isn't very helpful.

Thanks so much! And good luck to everyone :)

Hey guys,

I applied for the spring 2017, but was declined because I was still enrolled in A&P2 and micro. I will now be applying to the summer semester with a total of 223 points and a 94 on the HESI. What do you think my chances of getting accepted are?

You're in. Lol. My points came to total 209 and I got a 75 on the hesi and I got accepted for 2017 spring.
