I didn't buy or use a HESI book, I used my NCLEX books. I also reviewed my notes from previous semesters, and I did all the chapter questions in my med-surg and pharmacology textbooks.

Good luck!

I guess I don't know you then. I have to say honestly I think the HESI OB was way easy. This is my second HESI test. Fundamentals last semester I got an 1155. I got 1187 on the OB HESI. Which was surprising because I am very inconsistant in taking tests. We are required to get a 900 or remediate! My regular unit exams (we have 7 per semester :0( ) I score anywhere form an 80 to 94. BUT I am scared about the Midcirricular HESI. I don't know if it's the same for different schools, but ours will cover Psych, Med/Surg, and more OB. It's just a lot of info to study. I would suggest going over the major disease i.e CHF, ESRD, fluid and lytes, and some of the major meds for each disease. Good luck- I think were both gonna need it.
