Sep 6, 201114 yr Congratulations ValDonovan, I hope you can find a job ASAP. I just bought the HESI review book and hopefully I'm going to take the test this month.

If you find any info of the HESI test let me know. Good luck in everything. God bless u!
Sep 10, 201114 yr Congratulations ValDonovan! I wish you the best on your job search. I took the HESI exam a few weeks ago, submitted my application and required documents for the evening LPN program at TECO. I have an interview next week. I am excited and nervous. I hope I get through....
Sep 11, 201114 yr Hello Magda81; Congratulations! I'm just curious about the Hesi test, I have the Hesi review book and I don't know if I have to study other books to pass the HESI. Can you help me please!!! Thanks a lot...Good luck in the interview...
Sep 11, 201114 yr evelina3,I did not buy the by the actual hard-copy of the HESI review book. I brought the online course with Evolve Elsevier. It is called Evolve Self Study Online Course.It is not really an online course, I think it is just the book posted online. The online book is called Admission Assessment Exam Review 2. Anyway, I review everything in that online book and took all practice exams.Apart from the online book, I also practice my math skills by printing worksheets from the website called Math is Fun. Here's the link:http://www.mathsisfun.com/worksheets/index.phpAlso, on this website (allnurses.com), someone posted links for practice exams. I saved it on my favorites, and checked them out a few days prior to my exam.http://www.scribd.com/doc/27347958/H...ce-Examination http://www.proprofs.com/quiz-school/...hp?search=hesiTake your time with the reading. We were able to pick whatever sections we wanted to so I started with math. I hope this is helpful.Good luck.
Sep 11, 201114 yr evelina3,If you review the book, you will be fine. Make sure you know the measurement/conversion, fractions, decimals, percentages and proportions. I mostly study math since I forgot most of those stuff prior to reviewing for the HESI.
Sep 12, 201114 yr magda81,Thanks for the tips and the links. Right now, I'm not nervous about math is about my reading, grammar and vocabulary because English is my second language. It is true that the vocabulary part is with words from the health field...I'm so nervous about these topics. I hope you can help me. I know that I can't start the program in January because the deadline is in October and I don't feel prepare to take the Hesi. I really need your help if you can help me. Thanks a lot. Hey! how was the interview? Good luck, Eve
Sep 13, 201114 yr evelina3,Yes, the vocab words are regular words that are use on the health field, not complicated medical terminology words. Words such as labile, concave, abrupt, flushed. I don’t remember all of the words. I just know that a lot of the words on the test, I also saw in the book. As far as the grammar, I will review the whole section in the book. Also spend some time reviewing the things below:Singular/plural formsPast/present/ future tenseTheir, They’re, There, Affect/EffectGood/WellAmong/BetweenAmount/NumberFewer/lessAlso, be careful with words that look similar such as form and for...The interview was ok, I hope I get accepted. I think I could have answer one or two questions a lot better.Take your time and good luck.
Sep 17, 201114 yr Magda81,Thanks a lot for the hints. I'm just finishing and reviewing the Math section, the only thing that I don't understand very well is the measurement conversions. I just went to quizlet page to understand it better. That's the only part that I have to study more. If you can tell me something about this section I will appreciate it. Thanks a lot. Eve
Sep 17, 201114 yr Hello,I am new to this site. I have read all post over the past couple of weeks!! I wanted to wish good luck to all who are taking the Hesi, I personally thought this test was easier than Net and Tease. I am happy to say that i just got my acceptance letter in the mail for the PT October class and feel the pressure off my shoulders. I hope to meet you guys on orientation. Good luck!! I am flipping out!!!!
Sep 18, 201114 yr SUNDREAMS26, Thanks a lot, and congratulations for your acceptance to the program. I'm studying every day like 4 hours. I just want to feel prepare to take this test. If you remember something about the test let me know I will appreciate it. Thanks, I'm so happy for you. Thanks a lot...
