I'm taking it tomorrow...how was the test? Did you have to do the chemistry part? My school requires chemistry and its freaking me out!!

97% cumulative over the entire thing. Only the math, and "English comprehension" parts counted and you needed a 75% or greater to "pass."

The chemistry part is pretty basic so I wouldn't worry too much about it. Things could have changed with it in the 2 years since I've taken the test however.

I am applying to ITT Tech September 2011 and I just took the Hesi entrance exam. I scored an 85% cumulative. Who else has taken the Hesi, and if so, what were your scores that got you into the program?

I took mine in Apr and it was a 91.41. I wasn't trying for ITT, though........

How was the test overall? Were there a lot of math conversion problems? Did you have to take the A&P section? I will be taking the test on July 7 and am studying round the clock for it!

I just took the test this past Saturday and the math was mostly conversions and ratios. Know your conversions (oz, lbs,kilos, quarts, gallons, etc). I took the A&P section and it would be hard for someone who did not take the course. Look over your A&P notes if you have taken the course and go over the first few chapters. A lot of muscle questions were on the A&P section.

I did not have to take the A&P. For the math you need to know your basics. Addition, subtraction, fractions. Also, study ratios and proportions (lots of ?'s on those), measurements, etc. There are a quite a few improper fractions questions. Reading was fairly easy. You can't really study for that section. Vocab SUCKED! I thought I knew the meanings of words, WRONG! That was the worst part of the test. The words were very hard. GOOD LUCK!!

I had to take 5 sections Math, grammar, reading, Anatomy & Physiology, and Vocabulary. I made an 87.53 average. In order to be competitive to the program I want to get into I need at least a 93 average so I will try again in September.
