HESI A2 Exam — What to Expect and How to Prepare
May 06, 2026
The HESI A2 covers eight subjects: Math, Reading Comprehension, Vocabulary, Grammar, Biology, Chemistry, Anatomy and Physiology, and Physics. Most schools require a minimum score of 75-80% per section. Start studying 6-8 weeks before your exam. Focus on Anatomy and Physiology as it carries the most weight for nursing programs. Use flashcards for vocabulary and medical terminology. Practice math without a calculator as some sections are calculator-free. Studyrift has hundreds of HESI A2 study materials from students who scored 90% and above.
