HESI A2 practice exam

This practice exam draws on a large bank of original questions written by iBee tutors and mapped to the common content areas of the HESI A2 (Admission Assessment) exam. Use quick practice for a short untimed set, or practise by topic to drill one area at a time.

The bank covers:

• Mathematics
• Reading Comprehension
• Vocabulary and General Knowledge
• Grammar
• Biology
• Chemistry
• Anatomy and Physiology

Every question has an explanation, and your results show a score for each area so you know what to review.

These are original practice questions, not real HESI questions. Schools choose which HESI A2 sections to require and set their own cut scores (often 75-80%); check with your program. See our nursing study support for one-to-one tutoring.
