HESI RN Compass Comprehensive Exit Exam Advanced NCLEX Predictor for Nursing Graduates 2025 Edition
This 150-question multiple-choice exam (with formats including select-all-that-apply, fill-in-the-blank, and hot spots) spans nine core content areas: Fundamentals, Pharmacology, Medical-Surgical, Maternal-Infant, Pediatric, Psychiatric, Community Health, Research, and Management—emphasizing critical thinking and clinical judgment aligned with NCLEX-RN standards. Administered near program completion, it predicts NCLEX success with a scored range of 0–1,500 (850+ typically required for graduation, correlating to 90%+ pass probability). Sample topics include SIADH management (e.g., monitoring weight gain and hypertension), neurological assessments (e.g., early indicators of altered cerebral function like consciousness changes), and ethical scenarios (e.g., domestic violence documentation). Offered via the Compass platform for proctored or practice modes, it includes detailed performance reports and remediation tools. Widely used by nursing schools to ensure competency, preparation involves resources like the HESI Comprehensive Review book, Quizlet flashcards, and Naxlex practice banks; users report 98–99th percentile scores (e.g., 1,100+) after 2–4 weeks of targeted study. Not the NCLEX itself but a proven gateway to licensure, with versions updated for 2025 content.
