Nursing Students HESI

Published

Anyone planning to apply to LSC fall of 2012? If so can you tell me how many points you have. I have 11.1 trying to decide if I want to re-take HESI or not....

@Elco I have found out that the critical thinking component is NOT available at LSC. If you need to take it you will have to sign up somewhere else to take it.

Thank you, Kalisefer.

@hopefulleslie there is another forum going regarding lsc. The title is Lone Star Fall 2012 ADN Applicants. I believe most of the curious people out there are going to be searching for Lone Star or Lonestar and not lsc.

hey folks.. I just put in my application a couple of days ago at the cyfair campus.. my score was 11.636. I'm so bumbed out from the ongoing process of taking pre reqs.. and being rejected from schools. i just really hope i get into SOMEWHERE........

=( i need to get this show on the road. good luck everyone! and also.. do you guys mind posting your final scores so we all have an idea on where we stand? Thanks

@mssweeney. I was an alternate last application period at cy-fair with an 11.2468. I have reapplied with an 11.5468. Best I could tell the cutoff was at around 11.45 last application period, but I am not sure how many more applicants there will be this application period with those higher scores, it leaves little margin for a score like mine to make it above an alternate spot. I could have retaken the HESI but I chose not to in fear of lowering my score. So with my past experience I say you are safe, only time will tell as acceptance letters should arrive the first week of April. Good luck you did well my dear competitor.

Hi guys,

Can you tell me a little about the HESI entrance exam? How is the math portion? Is it a lot of story problems and such? Let me know what you think. Thank you.

Congrats @mssweeney thats a great score!!! I applied to cyfair with 11.493. Fingers crossed... I hope this score is enough to get me in!!! Like you, I am tired of the process of taking pre-reqs and rejection!! Now the hard part....waiting for the letters! When I dropped off my application the lady told me that we should recieve the letters by the END of April. I really hope they are mailed sooner!! Good luck to all, Hope for the best :)

This is my third time applying to the ADN program at Lone Star. My first time was last year and my score was an 8 something. I was unaware that I would not get credit for classes that were in progress, therefore having such a low score I received a denial letter. The denial letter landed in my mail box on April 3, 2011. I reapplied last application period with a score of 11.2 and made alternate list at Cy-fair. I had a "B" in English comp I which greatly affected my score. This past winter mini I earned an "A" in English comp I to boost my score to an 11.5468. Hopefully this time around will be successful as I too am tired of taking classes. I am only 6 credit hours away from an associates degree. I only need govt I & II, I have taken all other required classes for the ADN program and them some to keep a full time student status. Between last semester and this semester I have been taking classes that will transfer to a BSN program. I am running out of classes to take. I think I am now officially a sophomore twice. I have applied to both HCC and Lone Star this application period. I hope I will be accepted somewhere this go around!

I turned in my application for Montgomery,NH, T, cyfair with an 11.84 for my score. I'm super excited that I can finally see a light at the end of this journey, and yet I know its just the beginning. I was accepted into the LVN program so I went ahead (as per nursing department) and did my fingerprinting for background check, and did the tb skin test. I'm looking for somewhere reasonable priced for a physical, but all in all, I'm just ready. Good luck to everyone!

@gmarks I am going to resubmit the physcial I had from last application period when I made alternate list for the cy-fair adn program. From my understanding it is good for a year. I did mine at Wal-green's take care clinic for $35, it was a back to school special. I am not sure what the regular price is, but maybe you could talk to someone at one of those clinics to see if they will give you a discount begin that you are going for nursing. :p
