by jayn108 Jun 17, '12Appreciate everyone's responses in helping me prepare for hesi exam. I have studied for a month and feel sorta prepared for the exam. For my final 10 days, I want to find out how to study for the vocabulary section, and the critical thinking section. How do I study for these sections? I am applying to UT Health Science Center in Houston as well as Texas A&M. I would like to know from recent hesi takers how the test is designed and what new materials are presented on there. Thank you
Jay

- Jun 17, '12 by ixchelCan't help you on the critical thinking, but for the vocabulary I can say this much: Don't expect the definitions for each word to be the same part of speech as the original word. I'm a total grammar queen, and that messed me up. I was more than halfway through when I realized I was approaching the questions completely wrong and you can't go back once you've answered. The one section I thought I'd do the best on, I did the worst!
- Jun 19, '12 by jayn108Thank you so much. I'm just in panic mode right now because I don't know what to expect. What did you mean by part of speech?
- Jun 21, '12 by ixchelWell, let's say they ask you this:
Choose the best meaning for the highlighted word:
The cells had to *proliferate* in response to the infection.
A. Reaction
B. Begin
C. Propagation
D. Spread
In my brain, I'd have compartmentalized this question to rule out anything that wasn't a verb. Propagation is actually the synonym to proliferation, though, and in this question, the right answer. -
