That's the book I used and got over 90% on all the subjects. :] I studied for about a month. Good luck.

I have this book and people said it didn't help on the vocab part. I thought the test in the back seemed pretty good, but I haven't taken the test yet so I'm not completely sure.
That is the book I have been using to study as well. I haven't found the vocabulary section to be very helpful either. It's as if the words are too common and I already know their meaning. I read reviews that this book wasn't very helpful but it is nice to hear you got 90% on all the sections. I am terrible at test taking so I am extremely nervous! I have to take the HESI and NLN exams. Was there a large amount of science on the exam? I only have to take 4 out of the 9 sections: Math, reading comp, vocab and grammar. Did you have to take the entire exam?
Thanks!!!!

Yeah - I had to take all the test. It was very hard, about 50 questions in Chemistry, like.. 35 in Biology, and another 50 in Anatomy and Physio. I had thought it was going to be 50 questions mixed science, but it was 3 different sections. The math is REALLY easy, you can even use a calculator. I would really make sure you know your spelling and grammer though - they pulled some punches in those sections. In all honesty, if you're doing good in the vocab guide you'll be fine, it was pretty basic.

Hi, All - I am new here and am taking my nursing prereqs for a BSN program (2nd bachelor's). I'm taking the HESI A2 soon and am wondering what are some good books to study for the science parts. I am going to use my A&P books for biology and A&P (of course!) but what about chemistry?
I'm sure this has been answered before, but I'd appreciate all help and advice!
