I am waiting for my acceptance/denial letter from my school, and it has me thinking.. I wonder what is an all around average for the scores that get accepted.
So I got an idea to make a thread and ask people who got accepted into nursing what was your HESI and prerequisite GPA that got you into nursing school.
I am curious just to find out what would be an all around average.
I know every school is different and they all have different classes and different standards, but i think it would be fun just to look at the statistics and average it and just see what we get.
THANK YOU
if you dont mind, post your prerec GPA and overall HESI score.

Every program is severely different.
I had a 3.9 and 92 HESI. Ranked 53 out of 160 accepted. I know some programs that have the highest scores a 3.0 and a 85 hesi. It really all depends.

My school uses the TEAS as an entrance exam, not the Hesi. The minimum requirement is 74% on the TEAS and a 3.0GPA. I got 93.7% TEAS score and 3.95 GPA. My program ranks by TEAS score for admission, with GPA as a tie breaker if necessary.

We don't take an entrance exam. Ours solely based on GPA. I have a 3.5, a friend of mine who also got in had a 2.75. Requirement is 2.5.
I was just accepted a couple of weeks ago and have no idea what rank I was out of 61 other people.
Wow. Those are all super great scores and GPA's!
Thanks so much for sharing.
Nursing school is so competitive!!
Congrats to you guys on getting in. I hope you all are having a great experience in nursing school.

Good luck to you!! Those are really good scores and a great GPA!
My school leans more toward your GPA, then the hesi, and then how many classes you took at their school.
I'm waiting to find out if I made it too! It's so torturous.
