Practice Tests for HESI Admission Assessment?

Nursing Students HESI

Published

Can anyone tell me where I can find online or textbook practice tests for the HESI admission assessment exam? I have the Elsevier book but I would like to just practice more, and only questions from the subjects I need (For example, I don't need chem, bio, or physics, but sometimes it's hard to tell if a question is for A&P or bio).

Thanks!

Hey, this question was from a little while ago, but I'm trying to answer some questions about the HESI since I took it today, and the information is still on my mind. Hopefully this helps you if you haven't taken it yet or can help someone else!

Download the HESI A2 Pocket Prep app. Aside from the book you mentioned, this was the number one thing that helped me do well. It does cost about 15$ if I recall correctly, but it's worth every penny. It has questions from every section of the HESI, and you can build your own exams (question number and subject). That way, if you are 100% confident in math and vocab, but you need help in biology and grammar, you can build yourself exams that only focus on biology and grammar. After you answer the questions, whether you get them right or wrong, you can read an explanation of why your answer was right/wrong and the other answer choices were right/wrong. I highly recommend reading these explanations.

For example, in biology, a question may ask which molecule is used as a template during transcription. You'll answer mRNA, but then when you read the explanation, it gives you a good summary of transcription so that you can be reminded of the entire process.

Hope that's helpful, and good luck if you haven't taken it yet!
