    NurseKat274 replied to glenlorie's topic in HESI

    I passed on the second time. My biggest help was realizing that the key to beating the HESI is knowing test-taking strategies, and how to answer the questions... NOT the content of what you know and do not know! I suggest using the test-taking tutori...
