So, I took my Hesi Final exam today. I thought it was pretty difficult. It was 160 questions, which i assume that the majority or all of them are, with the 10 pilot questions. I looked at my answers after the test, even though we were told not to, and i know that i got 39 questions wrong for sure. So take away a few pilot questions "hopefully" and I have anywhere from a probable 34-39 questions wrong on a 150 question test. So I pretty much got anywhere from 74-80% of the questions correct.
However, I do understand that all the questions are weighted differently and so on. However, I got a 762 on my mid-cirricular Hesi, which i know is a terrible score, but i missed 42 questions on a 110 question test. So I basically scored anywhere from 60-68% on that test. Which is significantly lower than what I did on my final HESI. So, I figure I have to be fairly close to scoring a 900 which is what i need to make on my final hesi.
Does anyone know or recall how many questions that they actually missed on their hesi exam? I would like to know, it might help me figure about what grade I got. However, I hear a lot of talk that 2 people can miss the same amount of questions and make very different scores. Any experience with this?
Thanks!...

I took it 4 times as an exit exam. I also took it mid term for 3 semesters. I have never passed that stupid test. I averaged 780, made a 804 on one of my exits. Luckily they released my transcripts and I passed NCLEX RN in 75 questions 45 minutes. Hessi and NCLEX are night and day. But, if you have to pass it then good luck. We had to buy EVOLVE test bank to prepare for HESSI. It is by far the dumbest prep test for Exit, NCLEX I have ever done. I never made over a 48% on those.
Hessi seemed to get progressively harder, I feel like if I had of just tried a little harder I would have passed the first one. HESSI is stupid....
