  1. Hesi Exit Test

    lsw1956 replied to CSLee3's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    I completely understand. My school required 900 on the final HESI to graduate. I made 891 on 1st, 858 on 2nd, and after fasting and praying at my church for 24 hours I made 1006 on final and 3rd HESI....

  4. Hesi Exit Test

    lsw1956 replied to CSLee3's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    I also attended a school that has HESI. Even if you have 100% in class if you don't make a 900 on exit HESI you are out or have to repeat the whole course. Average HESI score in class was 880. How...

  5. Any "50-ish" Pre-Nursing Students?

    This is very true! Everyone has to decide for themselves where and how to follow their dream. Everyone else's opinion doesn't count. Everyone has to be true to

  6. Any "50-ish" Pre-Nursing Students?

    lsw1956 replied to Elle16's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I totally agree!!! My experience is that 50+ RN's are more dependable because their kids are grown and out of house and are more settled and matured. Thanks for the input

    lsw1956 replied to Elle16's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What area do you live? It is so hard to believe someone having a problem getting a nursing job! Our area needs nurses and most of us have a job waiting for us right out of school. The employers even...

  10. Hesi Exit Test

    lsw1956 replied to CSLee3's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    I agree! We lost so many people because of HESI. Unlike your school HESI is not computed into our grade. Hesi is a grade all it's own, 95% of the class passed the class but not HESI and they were not...

  11. Hesi Exit Test

    lsw1956 replied to CSLee3's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    Personally, I think you should do at least 100 per day. Make sure you do your practice test on all subjects since this is an exit exam. There will also be drug and dosage calculation questions on the...

    lsw1956 replied to CSLee3's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    When I studied for HESI I did questions, questions, and more questions. Saunders is a good book. The Kaplan book is also good, it really helped me to know how to eliminate answers. Well worth the...

  13. Hesi Exit Test

    lsw1956 replied to CSLee3's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    Our school requires a 900 to pass HESI. Half or the class did not acheive a 900. About 90% of the class did acheive a 850 or higher. I took boards about three weeks ago and I thought it was much...

    Have you taken the state boards, if so do you think HESI prepared you for it? Which test was the more difficult, HESI or

  15. Hesi Exit Test

    lsw1956 replied to CSLee3's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    My school requires a score of 900 to graduate. If the students aren't making the grade I have to wonder why. I was very Blessed to have made 1006 on my exit HESI but 875 was about the average and none...

  16. Question about Hesi exit exam

    lsw1956 replied to roro13us's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Your school is a lot different than mine. I attend an AD program. There are four levels. Each level there is a HESI test. 1st level you have to score 750, 2nd level an 800, 3rd level an 850, and the...

    lsw1956 replied to texasnursingstudent's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I am glad you have a chance to retake. My school only gives you one chance to pass. We have a HESI every level. Level 1-750, level 2 -800, level 3 - 850 and level 4- 900. If you don't pass the HESI...
