Have you taken a HESI exam?

Published

I am a senior nursing students and my teachers are speculating about giving us a HESi exam for our final. Will the CD with practice questions be the same questions that we will get on the final? Nobody bought the book yet because the teachers are "unsure" about whether we are taking the final. I have the book and the CD will the practice problems on the CD be the same as the HESI exam. I only found one book on HESI where would the teachers get their questions?

We take a HESI halfway that requires an 800 and the beginning of last quarter requiring an 850, with 2 chances to retake it, not a part of your grade. All schools do it differently. Some have you take it just to see if you're ready for NCLEX but you don't have to pass. I believe our school does it to keed their percents up for those that pass the boards. The CD is actually more difficult than the actual test. I was getting ~75% on the CD after studying and a nervous wreck, but ended up passing HESI c an 1191. I did take the 3 day class and study the book- especially the grey boxes or "HESI hints", and it helped tremendously. The class didn't help much, but the book did to review and the disk to at least get comfortable with the format. I take the NCLEX nex month, and I think the HESI study guide will help.
