TerriwasMy HESI exit exam I just took a few weeks ago before graduating had 160 questions on it. We actually had the option of taking it up to three times to get the best score we could achieve on it, and my score inproved each time cuz I did tons of practice review questions. I have not yet taken the NCLEX (next month!!!) so can't comment on that. Good luck! :)

DCCCRN2Bn05 43 Posts May 30, 2005 I took the HESI exit exam about a month ago, and scored like 89% which means i was told interets as an excellent chance to pass boards. I haven't done a ton of questions, but on those HESI practice disks i didn't score all that hot. Can anyone compare. I NCLEX on June 1st.

But do yourself a favor and DO do all the practice tests, and then go over all the rationales, just like the instructions say. It will help you. I had friends who only made 60's - 70's on the practice tests and still passed HESI. We had to have an 875 to pass. I would keep doing practice questions though. GOOD LUCK!!I take NCLEX june 8.
nahjah 25 Posts May 31, 2005 We took the HESI both years of our ADN program- both times, we had 160 questions. We were told by our instructors that how you do on the HESI is 97%accurate of how you'll do on your NCLEX. I hope it is true!!!
green12345 10 Posts Mar 8, 2008 I will be taking the HESI in a few weeks as an exit exam and am quite nervous. The CD in the book only came with 6 practice test and I wish there were other HESI practice exams available. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to review and be successful for the HESI?
