To anyone out there....
I had planned to apply for Fall 2018 but I will be finishing my pre reqs on May 1,2018. The exact deadline to apply for Fall. Is anyone in a similar situation? Do you think I should apply anyways?
Hello everyone!
I took the Hesi yesterday and I felt that it was really hard. I scored 80%. and my overall science GPA is 3.6. I honestly didn't feel like the Hesi A2 study guide was helpful. I relied on it and on the pocket app. I feel like the pocket app was more helpful.
I applied for both the generic full time and accelerated programs. I hoping to hear back from them soon. Good luck to everyone and hopefully we'll see each other in January!

@Grisso honestly if you've taken chemistry, biology and anatomy recently then it will be easy for you. I used the pocket prep app, pocket prep online notes and the Hesi A2 book by Elvsier. I would use both materials plus old textbooks. It's up to you. Some people use just the book and the pocket prep and do really good. Everybody is different.

I took the test yesterday and I felt like what I studied from the Hesi book was not on there. I had to depend on my knowledge from what I learned in my science classes. All in all I'm happy with my score.

Hi @FutureNurse1919. What part of it did you find harder and what did you use to study? You didn't find that study guide useful? I started studying, but probably won't take it until February. I want to have at least a month of Microbiology under my belt to help me if any of those questions come up. I'm more concerned about the Chemistry portion. Some study guides have easy questions for chem and I've noticed others have much harder questions. Wondering which type actually appear on the test.
