Took the HESI...

Published

I took the HESI this morning and wanted to share my score(s):

Cumulative: 87.5%

Math:84%

Chemistry:84%

Biology:92%

Reading Comp:90%

Critical Thinking: 890

It was easier than I thought, but the materials I used to study were not right for the chemistry portion, and I hadn't taken chem since high school.

I used the HESI A2 review book by Elsevier, and the pocket prep app.

Is this even a good score? Ah! I'm ready to apply for nursing programs, lol.

It depends on what your school uses to determine how they choose students. Do they use your science GPA or overall GPA as well? If you have a really low GPA you would typically want over a 90 overall. However, I think an 87 is a good grade and I would be proud of that. Best of luck!

Thanks Lbrock. The school I'm applying to says minimum of 75% on the HESI.

Yes they take GPA into account, only prereqs, of which I have a 4.0. I have a 3.36 cumulative.

I guess I'm just curious how most people score, if I'm falling into the average range.

I got a 93 but I did not take the same sections as you. We had math reading vocabulary reading and critical thinking. I say with a 4.0 GPA you are good!
