Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions

Our program is specifically designed to prepare you for the HESI Exit and HESI Specialty Exams.
Unlike most NCLEX prep programs, our questions are developed based on the actual HESI conceptual framework for the development of critical thinking test items, in addition to the NCSBN NCLEX blueprints.
After development, our questions are scientifically analyzed through an item analysis process as developed and used by HESI. In addition, our questions are constantly updated and improved based on the feedback of thousands of nursing students, all to ensure we offer the best and most up-to-date HESI exam practice questions possible.
As a result, many students find our program to be the most realistic practice opportunity before taking their exam.
Based on our 90%+ student success rate* we are confident our program will help you. We are the only test prep program that offers a full Success Guarantee for the HESI Exit Exam. We’ll help you score 900 or more - or your money back.

We cover both! And better yet, an active subscription to our program provides access to both our RN and PN study materials and practice exams.

Yes, we cover both RN and PN HESI Next Gen items. We have hundreds of realistic NGN items ready to help you succeed on the Next Generation exams!

You don’t need any special software to access the program. Your usual web browser on your computer, tablet or mobile will work just fine.

In fact, we’re so confident our program will help you that if you don’t achieve the score you need, we will refund every dollar you spent on it.

Success Guarantee

If you actively use the program and its material, but fail your HESI Exit exam, we offer a full refund (up to 6 months).

For up to 6 months after your initial purchase, if you fail your exam and have an active subscription to the program, simply send us a quick email and you’ll receive a full refund.
Note that if you fail your HESI exam and continue to study after your exam date, you forfeit your success guarantee claim for that particular exam.
