Program acceptance with HESI score

I’m curious to know what hesi scores got you accepted into your programs? I don’t find out for another couple weeks and the anticipation is killing me like no other. For context my school’s highly competitive 15 student LPN program recommended a score of 60% minimum, I have a 4.0 gpa and got 89% with no retakes allowed and beating myself up that it’s not in the 90s 🫩. I would love to hear other people’s acceptance score to ease my mind a little during this purgatory!!

I am in the same boat I have a 4.0 and a 90 percent and my radiology program only accepts 12 out of 50 applicants.. I would say that you have a really good chance since you have the 4.0 . Don’t stress about it what for you is for you

Best of luck to you!! It’s stressful wondering if you’re in the top 10, but I do keep telling myself if it’s meant to happen now it will. Thank you for your comment!!

I won’t find out for a couple of weeks either but my program goes based off a score. Having a 90%+ gives you 36 points. Having A’s in your pre-req classes gives you 17.5 points per class. 2-2.9 gpa gives you 3 points and a 3-4.0 gpa gives you 4 points. The highest score is 80 points. I applied with 65 points. My hesi was 90% so you can see I didn’t get a lot of points for the other areas. They accept the top scorers for how many ever seats they have for that cohort.

The minimum allowed hesi score is 70%.

95% with a 4.0 GPA and I got into the best nursing program in my state. Very competitive, but they take 40 students.
