Pharm HESI - any advice?

Published

My pharm HESI is coming up on Thursday - who's taken one before? How was it? It's 20% of our grade, and I'm still confused about how it's scored. Our instructor told us it's heavily weighted towards "not killing the patient," but I don't really know how that works. Is one wrong answer choice more wrong than the others? She gave us a list of 98 drugs/questions to study, which I'm still working on (24 pg word document so far) and I'm fairly comfortable with NCLEX-style questions. Just looking for any insight - thanks!

I am bumping this thread back up because I am taking the Pharm HESI on Monday and welcome any last-minute advice. I have taken one HESI before - it was Fundamentals one (this past July).

I am planning to do questions in the Pharm Reviews & Rationales book, questions on the CD for the HESI NCLEX book, and hopefully the questions in the Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX book, in addition to going through my note cards.

Thank you!
