Curiosity: Does the school you want to go to require this test? I had never heard of it before allnurses and I went thru a community college and then transferred to and graduated from a baccalaureate program. In both cases, they administered their own entrance tests and never mentioned the HESI. They also administered their own math tests. Which areas are you specifically having difficulty with?

Well this is a community college and they do require this test, it will be on general math like convertions, basic algebra, basic math fractions ratios stuff like that then it will have vocab grammer reading comprehension and I scored ok on the other stuff its just the math part that I have a problem with.

My school required us to do the HESI and I did awful on all the exams, which were a part of my grade! In order to graduate I had to pass the final comprehensive HESI exam with an 87%, so needless to say, I was scared. The HESI book comes with a CD- do those questions! Also, there is an online portion to HESI (at the evolve site) where we had access to online quizzes/test. All I did for my final quarter was questions, questions, questions. I did all the quizzes and tests multiple times that it became second nature. That method worked for me.
