Yay, finally someone responded. I'm a CNA right now. When are you taking your HESI and what was your grade in A&P? I'm taking my HESI on august 31ist and getting my CPR august 1st.

Did my LVN in Tomball 08. I can'tt really say much but to focus and study hard. LVN program is easy but stressful. Wish y'all the best in your application!

I am thinking about applying. For the HESI entrance test is it just the reading in math section?

I am also applying to the LVN program at Tomball. I already completed the classes I need for the ADN program but decided to apply for the LVN. I want to start working part time after 2012 so I chose the LVN program to complete first.

Hopefully I will be accepted into the program and then apply to the Transition program in Sept/2012 which starts in January 2013 (at NH). Its about the same total time but I hopefully will gain experience working as an LVN to have when I graduate with an RN. I've heard its sometimes hard for new grads without experience to get hired.

How is everyone going about studying for the HESI?

Thank you! Was it hard for you to find a job once you were done?

I'm taking the HESI August 31ist, and I'll be buying one of the recommended books to study off of. I also want to the the Transition program after this, but probably not until 2014 or so. When are you taking the HESI?
