Hi! I am also taking the HESI in 2 weeks. Do you mind sharing your studying plan :) I checked out the websites you mentioned

@EstyNistor Год назад

Hi! For the HESI, I took a practice exam first and then made a list of all the topics and areas I was not solid on that I wanted to improve. Then I studied and did tons of practice questions on all of those sections, working from the ones I felt least confident in to the ones I felt more confident in. I primarily used Mometrix Online University. Certainly not a requirement, and you can find lots of great free resources out there also. But it really helped me study well and focus on just what was necessary to focus on in a short amount of time.

Hi I’m about to take the hesi exam in a couple of weeks. Do you know if the calculator on the math portion allows you to work with decimals? It would be super helpful to know so I don’t waste my time computing on paper

Yes, a basic four-function calculator is included, so you should be able to work with decimals ☺️

@jensinecabo1659 2 года назад

Hi! Do you remember how many passages were on the reading comprehension section for you? Also how long are they (number of paragraphs)?

@EstyNistor 2 года назад

I don’t remember the exact number, but I do know that I had about 4-5 questions per passage for most of the passages. Some of them were short, like just a couple paragraphs. Some were long, like 4 or 5 paragraphs. It was really a mixture of length as well as different types of passages/style of writing.

Im taking the TEAS and the HESI exam in the same month, what do you recommend the best way to study for the both of these exams?

@EstyNistor 2 года назад

The Mometrix secrets study guides were very helpful for me. If you’re looking for a course/comprehensive review, I would recommend either Mometrix Online Courses (they have a separate course for each of the tests) or Nurse Hub. The nice part about the Nurse Hub course is that the subscription covers all the test prep courses, so you pay one subscription cost for all the tests that they include

@dustinsnook1566 2 года назад

What would you recommend more? Mometrix or Smart Edition Academy?

@EstyNistor 2 года назад

That’s a tough one because they are both really solid and extremely similar in content. I also found that the questions on both were very similar to the actual test. I think (just personal opinion here) that smart edition has some more difficult science questions, which can be helpful in preparing for the teas science. Mometrix is super solid in all sections, but I personally found the science section to be harder on the real test than the prep. Price for Smart Edition is a one time charge for access to their course, and Mometrix is a monthly subscription which you can cancel when you like.

Sorry to ask such a question, but unfortunately I find a lot of these videos like this video that are sponsored and are so biased and bought to say that those study resources are worth it and etc and turns out that we wasted money and it wasn’t close to the Exam.

@EstyNistor Год назад

No you don’t . Unless you are applying to a program that requires you to already have your prereqs completed. I took my TEAS test before taking any prereqs at all, and I did well on it. I did need to study hard though-esp on Anatomy & Physiology, since I didn’t have a background in that before taking the test.

@Clarabellyha День назад

Which section did you take first?

@lil_diyrk Год назад

if you had to choose between those three courses which one would you have picked as most beneficial?

@EstyNistor Год назад

For me personally, it’d be between Mometrix or Nurse Hub. Mometrix has something for every learning style and the course is super comprehensive: posts to read, videos, flashcards, practice questions, and full length practice tests. If you’re looking for something extremely comprehensive, Mometrix might be the way to go. Nurse Hub is also is very comprehensive. If you’re looking for tons of practice questions and lots of practice tests, then NH is a great choice.

I just took the test, & got an overall 93% with 2 weeks of prep, whoever lied & said this test is hard needs to get smacked upside the head. That’s just crazy, im no brainiac by any means, im just mad at people online hyping this test up into something it never was & “hard” isn’t one of them. If you paid attention in 8th grade, you’ve got it in the bag, that’s all I’ll say, the practice tests are all way harder than the actual test. What a joke.

@EstyNistor Год назад

Great job!! I personally found the TEAS test much more challenging than the HESI. However, in my opinion, the HESI wasn’t just “easy” . I really had to study for A & P as I had not taken a course in that before taking my nursing entrance exams. The other sections felt basically like a review of what I’d learned in middle school/high school.
