Need HESI A2 help

I am applying to a RN program and taking the HESI A2 next week or the following. First time taking it. I need an 80 or higher composite score and I have to take all the sections except Physics.

I have the Elsevier book (HESI Admission Assessment Exam Review 4th edition) and taking online practice tests. I also have pocket prep but I am hearing mixed feedback about it. Some say it helped, but some say the questions are nothing like the test especially A&P they said it was worthless as a study tool.

For those of you who have taken it--Any suggestions on what helped most and/or what topics I should focus on?

    I would study bones for the A&P section. 17 of my questions were bone related.

    Good luck!

    Thank you for your suggestion. I took it last week and I got a 94 overall and a 98 in the math!

    And yes I had so many bone and muscle questions!

    Alison I am currently studying to take the HESI A2 soon and was wondering if you could give any tips. Also do you think using the Elsevier book was helpful? I was looking at another study guide and cant decide between the 2. Thanks in advance for any help and congrats on the great score!!
