What is the number they want you to pass? 850 or above is a pretty good standard. It is figured that passing HESI at 850 you are likely to pass the NCLEX but not 100% guaranteed. Study Saunders.. it works with HESI.. Recognize if you can't pass HESI you probably can't pass the boards so keep studying as ultimately you need to pass the boards

Jean Watson is really respected in Colorado as that is where she lives and has taught and developed her theory.. Can you be a good nurse without caring about the person.. YES.. can you be a good nurse without caring.. NO. You need to care that that is someones mother, father, sister, brother etc. Not your mom., dad.. etc but someones. Treat people as you would want to be treated with respect and dignity. That is caring..

You are almost done, but you need to think about why you want to be a nurse. Nursing is a caring profession which includes taking care of the entire person. Even if you go to psych or the OR you need to think of whether you actually care about people enough to take care of them. I see too many students that go into nursing for all the wrong reasons and it is a huge waste of money and time. If you are questioning what you are doing now, I'm sure you'll be disillusioned by the profession in a very short time. Just make sure you are interested in being a nurse and all that comes with it. It really doesn't get easier or better it is what it is.
