Hello all, Can those of you who have used the HESI CD share the results you got on the disc. My scores have been well below what is recommended (64 PERCENT ). Should I be concerned when it comes time for finally HESI? PLS share.

Hey Everyone, Does anyone know why some people licenses expires faster than others. For examples mines was issued on the 27th of June 2008 and expires September 30th 2009. My friends was issued on June 24th 2008 and doesn't expire until June 30, 201...

Can anyone who has taken and passed the Hesi Exit Exam give me some advice. My school requires a 900 to pass. I have the Saunders NCLEX review and the Hesi book. Are there any test taking skills I should know before I go into the exam in May. Any l...

I used RN 3500. I read the Saunders book front to back and after each section I did the the questions. But that was over a 4 mth span of time.

I'm on Pediatric Med-Surg. I'm so super happy. Thank you.

$37,000 is awfully expensive. I know I wouldn't want to pay on that especially when you think about the interest that it will build. Here are some positives of Associate degree Nursing I know from first hand. I don't know where you live but here in V...

Nursing schools are competitive, but not impossible. Will you get in the first time you apply??? Maybe .... Maybe not, but if you want to be a nurse you won't let that stop you. I applied to nursing school for two yrs before I was accepted. I was fr...

I chose to go to INOVA for my fellowship. I'm actually started oreintation yesterday and I'm happy with my choice already. Flip flopping between days and nights will take some getting used to, but I'll manage. Plus the diff is good. I cant wait to ac...

Hi pitbullcm, I used Saunders primarily. I mostly did my questions in study mode so I don't what my scores were. The few times I took it in exam mode i think I averaged around 64%, but I passed Nclex.

Yea you should definitely give them a call. I did my clinical there in April and when we went to the NICU the nurses we literally begging us to go talk the the nurse recruiter. Two of my classes mates were hired in the NICU before graduation. They pr...

A friend of mine just passed hers yesterday and her expiration date isn't until 2011. We graduated in th same class. I emailed the BON so hopefully they will get back to me soon. I'm very curious.

That cant be true because it is expires in just over a year for me.

I say you def made the right decision. That programs sounds way to unorganized. And if its like that on the outside imagine what those poor students are going through. My school was the same way a few examples 1)My pharm teacher walked out mid way th...

Your situation sounds very similar to mine. When I started nursing school we were required to score and 850 on our exit Hesi in order to graduate. A year and a half into our 2 year program our Dept head decided that since NCLEX raised they percentag...

I wouldn't say nursing school was hard in my opinion, but I was stressful. My school had an exit exam that we had to pass in order to graduate so that was in my mind the last year of school. I also for me the grading scale in frustrating. At my scho...

:clown:Congrats!!!!

I finished 75 questions in less than an hour also. Looking back I should have taken my time, but I got so frustrated with the questions I was getting I started clicking the first answer that jumped at me. But I passed, so my first instincts must have...

Hey, I washed my white shirts with my regular white load. The bleach cleaned the "hospital cooties" in my mind. I washed my pants with other clothes also as they weren't in with underwear, night cloths, towels, washcloths, etc.

momtojosh, Congrats!!!! Your patients will be very lucky to have a nurse who there because she loves the profession. I used Saunders to study for Nclex. Its really up to you through. If you feel weak in some area you can use notes and text. I recomme...

I passed. That is stress I never want to experience again.

So when you called what did they say???? I called my BON and it said "current active" and they gave me a issue date and expiration date. Does that mean I passed??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations!!!! Thats is great.

I live in Northern VA and I'm starting at $25 with night and weekend diff. So my range will be $25-$33 per hour.

Helper4Life, I am feeling the same exact way you are. I took my test 8 am on Thursday also and I have yet to get any news. Its a feeling that only us nursing students understand. Hasn't that been the theme since we've begin nursing school??? The cra...

To be absolutely sure I would call the center and ask them, just so there is no confusion.
