I took the Hesi last year. There are several questions on A&P and I would suggest studying more than just the study guide in that area. The study guide did not help me at all in A&P-- I ended up getting 60 something out of 100. I have to take it again this year so I have been studying out of my A&P textbook. The chemistry part isn't too bad, if I remember correctly---know the periodic table. Otherwise, I thought the rest of the sections were pretty easy. I haven't taken the Teas so I don't know if they are similar but if you type in Hesi exam in the google search of allnurses.com you should get a bunch more info on the Hesi. I hope this helps!
