Finding the score formula that yields the best combination of validity and usability for HESI integrated exams.
For more than two decades, HESI has provided reliable exam scores that predict first-time success on the NCLEX-RN®, as well as reports that support learning and remediation. This scoring study was conducted to ensure that HESI scores continue to support these uses even after they include NGN items and partial-credit scoring.
This white paper examines the pass rates of the Next Generation NCLEX® of students who scored at 850 or above on the HESI RN exit exam.
White paper highlights
Great care, planning, and attention-to-detail went into incorporating NGN item types and the Clinical Judgment Measurement Model (CJMM) in the HESI blueprints, ensuring that HESI assessments remain reliable and valid for learning, remediation, and predicting first-time NCLEX success.
