Thank God. I passed HESI 7/25/2008 with a score of 1032. It was my last opportunity to take it without having to repeat my second year of nursing school. Bring it on NCLEX!!!

Thats so good, keep up the good, work, the hesi is very hard, and most of the time if you pass the hesi, then the NCLEX will be a breeze to pass.
i have never heard of it!!!! is that like the exiting test u have to take? mine was with eri. is that the same?
Yes Hesi is the exit exam required by my school in order to get signed off to sit for boards. My school requires an 870 to pass and only gives students two attempts to take it, and if unsuccessful on both attempts a student must return to complete their entire second year of nursing school again. This was my last try, I failed the first time with only an 818, but this time I studied my butt off and made it out with 1032. I am now OFFICIALLY a new grad. I can't wait to take boards I keep hearing it's a breeze in comparison to HESI.

This may sound stupid but what is HESI?
No it isn't stupid. Hesi is a comprehensive exam that is supposed to be a predictor on how well a student will perform on the state board exam NCLEX. Each individual school that administers the exam to their students determines the score required for a student to pass. However, Hesi has set an acceptable score (850) and a recommended score (900). According to Hesi which is owned by Elsevier, if a student scores an 850 on their exam they are likely to pass state boards the first time, and if a student scores 900 and above they are very likely (I think the percentage is 98%) to pass on the first try. Some schools just use it as a predictor for their students before they take boards and other schools like the one I graduated from use it as an exit exam.
