HESI A2 Exam Scores help!

Specializes in RN.

Hi there, everyone!  Just wondering if y'all could help me understand my HESI scores.  I just took this wretched exam 2 days ago.  I'm 45 years old and going back to school for nursing as my kids are all HS now and I have the time.  Anyway, I don't understand the conversions.  My school, Germanna Community College, only requires a 45%/450 per section of the exam (which seems crazy low to me, but whatever).  I have been told that the nursing program is highly competitive but I don't know the context of what my scores mean in comparison to everyone who is applying.  The advantages I have are that I scored an A on A&P 1, I live in a preferred county and my GPA is 3.6.  I need to get into the nursing program in the Spring semester as I have taken literally every class I am eligible for outside of the nursing program.  If I'm not accepted, my school life is just on hold until I do, which will make me cry, honestly.  Here are my scores as they came from Elsevier (I think the college converts the scores to a raw score out of 1000).  I've not heard anything from Germanna, but I do have an advisor appt next week.  Just trying to get some insight now.

What do you think?  Any ideas if I get in on the first shot with these scores?  Thanks everyone!  :)

I don’t have an answer for you, but my scores almost match yours exactly. With an overall of 84% I think my raw score was 900/1,000? 
 

I just applied last second (was waiting on my transcripts which was a mess). But let me know if you find anything else out! If I don’t get in this time, I plan on retaking one of my classes (the only class I have a C in), and possibly retaking the HESI A2. But I’m not sure yet!
