r/HESIexam

I passed my hesi about 3 days ago but I was so annoyed from taking the test that I waited to make a post. The anatomy physiology Quizlet was word for word, I scored 100%! As for reading, some of the passages from the Quizlet were on there and same with vocab. I scored 90% on math and i give all the credit to nurse hub for that, initially my first diagnostic for math was 20% and after a month of studying I was able to score 90 on hesi. I have the Quizlet with all the word problems from on there if you guys would want it. The hardest subject in my opinion was reading comprehension, I scored 80% and here are some of the passages I remember;

Golden Gate Bridge

The dollar bill

Voice

Circus

As much as I studied on nurse hub for everything, if I wouldn’t have studied the Quizlets that are circulating around here, I would NOT have passed. Study these and do nurse hub math and you WILL pass

I took hesi and my average was 83%. I need to retake it any idea in version 2. Thank you

I really do recommend all the quizlets people post as the ones for Math were accurate and English. I was very scared for my math portion since math was always my least favorite subject buttt I was able to score an 88% for my math portion. Overall score was a 87%

FOR ANYONE WHOS TAKEN THE WEST COAST HESI RECENTLY, do you guys have the Quizlet links I can use? Or any study tips for the math portion thank you 💕

Hello everyone!!!
So my exam includes critical thinking…I really don’t know where to begin studying. Has anyone been tested for this portion or know some study tools to prepare me for it?

guys im genuinely so so bad at math and im trying to study it but idk how im using nursehub rn but it’s sooo confusing honestly im not getting the concepts anyone know how to study math better? I’m taking A2

Hey everyone i’m taking my HESI exam on the 29th of July and I do not know what to use to start studying and what would be the most beneficial for me. Any advice welcome!

A&P is pretty much word to word
Math is also pretty much word for word
ENGLISH IS MUCH HARDER THAN IT SEEMS
Vocab and grammar is actually VERY tricky I was shitting myself. And normally I am really good at English. But I’m pretty sure I still did well! Keep you updated on the results.

i just took my hesi yesterday and got a 96.86! thank u to everyone on this sub for the help it was so beneficial for me. i wanted to share what helped me on each section.
Anatomy: 100%
the quizlet that’s going around was exactly like my HESI. i was a bit paranoid so i did take all the practice tests on nurse hub which was very helpful in understanding the concepts. i would recommend doing the practice tests at the end and understanding those concepts instead of going through every single section on nurse hub.
Biology 96%
It’s not needed to get into intricate details with this section it is super surface level. This quizlet helped me the most.

I also watched Nurse Shai’s Biology videos. I took a few practice tests on Nurse Hub and made flash cards out of those which was helpful as well.

Chemistry 100%
I was shocked when I saw that I got a 100 in Chem I wasn’t expecting it. I took every practice test on Nurse Hub and used those questions to make flash cards. I watched Nurse Shai Chem as well which is helpful for understanding the basics. This Quizlet I recognized some questions from. Definitely know atomic number and mass of common elements. I remembered 13 elements which were H, C, N, O, F, Na, Mg, S, Cl, K, Ca, Fe, and Cu. This was a little excessive I only saw two questions about atomic mass

Reading 98%
Very easy. Use this link it had some of the passages it will def help you on test day when you’re already familiar with the passages. I did not use Nurse Hub at all for this section. All I did was look at these reading passages the night before.

Grammar 90%
This was my lowest score lol. I did mostly all of the practice tests on Nurse Hub for grammar. I did not have anything about predicates, predicate adjective, independent/dependent clause or any of those terms. They were all mostly asking which sentence is incorrect, or which sentence contains an incorrect word. I didn’t use any quizlets for this section.

Vocab 96%
Pretty easy. The majority of this section is common sense but there are some uncommon words. This quizlet is really good.

Math 96%
100% do the word problems u see on quizlet. I went through every single nurse hub section and did every practice test. It was the first section I started with on the test and I was anxious I think I could’ve done better. Remember King Henry Died By Drinking Chocolate Milk and the gallon man. I remembered so many conversations that I didn’t use, but at least for my test I only had to use king henry and gallon man.

Do not over stress about this exam, but yes you do have to put the time and effort in to do well!! Good luck everyone and I hope these tips help!!

I take my HESI tomorrow at 9AM. What should I do today to be as ready as possible? I have been studying for a few hours, but what big topics should I focus on right now?

Hello everybody,

Just wanted to thank everybody and this sub for existing. I think I overdid it a bit with the studying but can't complain with all As. I wish you all the best of luck in your exams as well. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I took the hesi today and my overall score was 92.40.
Reading-82 i didn’t study for it
Grammar-90
vocabulary and knowledge - 100
anatomy-100
math-90

I have a folder that i studied for the hesi that I am going to attach. Some of the questions are wrong so double check. A lot of ratios was on the math and some open ended questions.

Just wanted to hop on here to say I took the hesi a2 the first time and got a 78% I had to retake it because they didn’t have me do math (not required by one of the schools) so I took it a second time about 3 weeks apart and heavily studied on bio/anatomy and math for the last week and got an 85%
For bio they asked about alleles, DNA, rna, proteins, lipids, definitely on mitosis and meiosis and like one question on plants
Know about the cell, nucleus and plasma membrane
Math I had one military time question
Addition, multiplication, division of fractions
And lots of ratio questions
Definitely know you conversions
Had questions on gallons to cups
Or quarts to ounces
Know pounds to kilograms
Know grams and milligrams

UPDATE!
I passed every required section of the HESI for my nursing program except Grammar. I scored a 74%, and for some reason grammar has been the hardest section for me.
Does anyone have a really good Quizlet set for HESI Grammar V2 that closely matches the actual exam? Any recommendations or study tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Have been using mynurseprep to study for my HESI exam because I matches my learning type the best. How accurate are the questions to the actual HESI. I have 90s in all subjects but A&P but I haven’t started that lesson yet. Please help a girl out, any advice will help!

Hi, everyone! I’m apply to the respiratory therapy program in my cc and I just finished taking my Hesi exam today.
Grammar- 100
Reading- 90
Vocab-94
Math-88
A&P-76

As you can see, I did not do very well on A & P which was annoying bc I had studied the quizlets hard and none of those questions were on there 😅
This leaves me in a point average of 36/50 of max points I can get from the test.

Should I retake the test or should I just focus on other parts of my application? I did really good in other sections and it seems like a waste to just go back for one but I’m not sure.

Any advice?

I've studied like crazy the last couple of weeks. And not gonna lie, I'm still nervous.

Accumulative score of 92 A&P- 100 Math-100 Grammar-88 Reading-82 Critical thinking- 970

These are the quizlets I used. A&P and math was word for word. Grammar had most of it. Reading was mainly until Voice and the last two (which didn't really show much of the answer on this quizlet). Critical thinking had the majority of it. Not gonna lie I saved reading for last and by the time I got to it I was so hungry and sleepy. Treated myself to Whataburger after I was done lol. Thank you all for the best wishes!! They helped :)

Hi guys, I take the HESI tomorrow and I’m so nervous. I feel like I got math mostly down, but I’m worried about vocab and grammar. Any study tips for me or things that I absolutely need to know for those two sections, but any of the sections in general!!

Please give me all your tips and tricks, regardless of how unhinged they might be!

has anyone been in my position before? did you get in? do i lose hope? idk what to feel. I got a 91.5 on my HESI exam and i have a 4.0 gpa.
