The best way to go into your exams feeling confident is to practice first – the earlier the better! Here are some tools to help you get started: HESI Nursing Case Studies and HESI Nursing & Health Professions Practice Tests are often required by instructors to help get students ready for their HESI exams (and the boards.) Students who've used them say they're the best practice available to help prepare for HESI exams. The questions are written like the questions you'll see on the HESI exams, and there are more in these products than in any other source! So if your instructor had you purchase either or both of these products, make sure you're using them fully. You won't regret it. The HESI Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX® is also a great way to prepare for your HESI RN and HESI PN exams.” Since HESI exam questions are written like questions you'll encounter on your board examination, quality review products are also good for extra practice. There are a lot of options available for Nursing students. Click here to see some of the most popular.
Questions on HESI exams are written at the critical-thinking level – like those that students will see on the board exam. That means the questions on HESI exams are often more challenging than some of the other practice questions students will see throughout their education. So while HESI can be tough, so is the NCLEX® and every other board examination. And the more often students are exposed to the rigorous style of questions they'll see on the NCLEX® or certification exam, the more comfortable and confident they'll be when they take the actual exam.
These websites do not contain HESI content, and we do not endorse, support or are affiliated in any way with these other websites. The services they provide are not based on access to any HESI content (questions or exam structure), so beware of any promises that you find with these products online. The best way to prepare for HESI exams is to use products like those described above – especially those based on actual HESI content.
HESI really will help you gauge how you'll perform on the board exams. Detailed studies have been conducted on HESI RN and PN exit exams, and research shows that the HESI exit exam is up to 98% predictive of NCLEX® success. That means that if you succeed on the HESI exit exam, you'll most likely pass the NCLEX®. Some schools also assign their own scores or passing requirements to HESI exams. Those course requirements are established by each school – not by HESI or Elsevier.
HESI isn't just one exam. It's a suite of products, including exams, to help students prepare for their board exams (most commonly the NCLEX® exams for nursing). In most cases, individual schools select the specific HESI exams and prep-products that will be made available to their students. The products chosen by the schools include exams that can be taken before students ever enter the program, exams and prep-products offered throughout individual courses, and a comprehensive exit exam that covers the entire curriculum.
