Pass your LPN exit exam. Get cleared for NCLEX-PN.

ATI Predictor benchmark: 58%+ · HESI Exit benchmark: 850+

The ATI Comprehensive Predictor PN is a proctored exam administered near the end of your LPN program. Your score reflects the probability of passing NCLEX-PN on the first attempt. Most programs require a score of 55–65% to be cleared for graduation. Check your program handbook for the specific cutoff.

The HESI LPN Exit Exam covers all core LPN subject areas in a single comprehensive assessment. Scored 0–1000, with most programs requiring 750–900+ to pass. The score is used to determine graduation clearance and is a strong predictor of NCLEX-PN performance.

Most LPN programs allow 2–3 attempts, often with a mandatory waiting period between sits (typically 30–60 days). Some schools have stricter policies that affect your graduation timeline if you fail. Know your program's rules before you sit — preparation now is far better than a delayed graduation.

The LPN exit exam tests all 9 subject areas, but students most commonly struggle with Pharmacology, Med-Surg, and Mental Health. Start with a diagnostic — use Erudiway's free questions across all subjects to find your lowest-scoring areas, then drill those first.

Meeting your program's exit exam benchmark is a strong predictor of NCLEX-PN readiness, but they're not identical tests. The exit exam clears you to sit for NCLEX-PN — it doesn't replace dedicated NCLEX prep. Erudiway's nursing school content builds the clinical knowledge foundation that NCLEX-PN tests.
