Hesi Question/curious

[jordyRN82]

Just as a question out of curiosity.....

How many of you attend programs that have the HESI test which has points factored into the semester grade? I know some people only take the Exit Exam, and some schools dont have HESI's any at all.

At my school, we take a Specialized HESI at the end of each semester level, and it accounts for 40 points out of 500 points available from our theory grades, and it can break you if you bomb it. My school gives 0 points for 749 or less, 20 points for 750-849, and 40 for 850 or more,

Our class average in level 2 was 720. I was curious about that too because I read that 720 was pretty below average for the program.
