title: The HESI Exit Exam: progression benchmark and remediation guide.
abstract: Evidence exists indicating that remediation positively affects NCLEX success of students with known academic deficits. However, specific benchmarks that identify students who are at risk of NCLEX failure and in need of remediation have not been identified. Following publication of research findings that established the reliability and validity of the HESI Exit Exam (E) as an accurate measure of students' NCLEX preparedness, nurse educators increasingly chose administer the E to their senior students. This study investigated using the E as a benchmark for progression and as a guide for remediation.
