โญ What Tampa Bay HESI Students Say
"HCC Dale Mabry is competitive โ the points system means every percentage point on the HESI matters. My diagnostic was 71%. My tutor identified A&P as my biggest ROI section and we spent 4 weeks on cardiovascular, neuro, and renal. Final score: 80% A&P, 82% cumulative."

"SPC was my backup plan after I didn't get into USF's BSN. Turns out I needed the HESI instead of the TEAS. My tutor pivoted my study plan in one session โ the content overlap between TEAS Science and HESI A&P saved me time. Scored a 79% cumulative and got into SPC's program."
