The HESI A2 stands between you and a nursing program seat, and it is a wide test rather than a deep one — it moves quickly from reading a passage, to solving a dosage-style math problem, to recalling a grammar rule, to identifying a body system, all in one sitting. Most candidates do not fail because the content is hard; they lose points to rusty math, unfamiliar science vocabulary, and running out of time. This test bank, built to follow the Study Guide for HESI A2 Admission Assessment 2023 – Review and Test Bank, gives you high-volume, exam-style practice across every section so the format feels routine before test day.
Why this test bank helps
Answering questions is only half the value — the other half is understanding why. Every item here includes a worked rationale: for math it shows the setup and each step, for grammar and vocabulary it explains the rule and the trap in the wrong choices, and for the sciences it ties the answer back to the underlying concept. That rationale-first approach turns a wrong answer into a lesson and helps you spot the patterns HESI-style questions tend to repeat.
What’s inside
- Section-mapped question sets covering Mathematics, Reading Comprehension, Vocabulary & General Knowledge, and Grammar
- Science practice across Biology, Chemistry, and Anatomy & Physiology
- Exam-style multiple-choice formats that mirror the pacing and phrasing of the real admission assessment
- Word-problem math (ratios, proportions, dosage-style conversions, percentages) with step-by-step solutions
- Reading passages with inference, main-idea, and detail questions to build test-day stamina
- A clear rationale for every question, not just an answer key
- Delivered as an instant PDF you can print or study on any device
Topics covered
- Mathematics — fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios, proportions, and measurement conversions
- Reading Comprehension — main idea, inference, author’s purpose, and vocabulary in context
- Vocabulary & General Knowledge — common academic and health-related terms
- Grammar — parts of speech, sentence structure, and common usage errors
- Biology — cells, genetics, and basic molecular and cellular processes
- Chemistry — atomic structure, the periodic table, reactions, and solutions
- Anatomy & Physiology — major body systems and their functions
- Test-taking strategy — pacing, elimination, and managing multi-section fatigue
Who it’s for
This is for pre-nursing and allied-health applicants preparing for the HESI A2 (Health Education Systems, Inc. Admission Assessment) as an entry requirement for nursing school. It suits first-time test-takers who want a full-coverage practice base, and re-testers who need to close specific gaps in math or the sciences. It pairs naturally with the matching study guide, using the guide to learn and this bank to test yourself.
How to use it (the right way)
Start with a diagnostic pass across all sections to find your weakest areas, then drill those first. Work each question before reading the rationale, then read the explanation even when you were right — the reasoning is where the learning sticks. As test day nears, do timed section-length sets to build pacing. Please use this as a self-assessment and study aid only: it is not the actual exam, not affiliated with or endorsed by the test publisher, and is meant to help you learn the material honestly and prepare with integrity.
Sample question
(Shows the format — your download contains the full set.)
Q. A solution is prepared by mixing 3 parts concentrate with 12 parts water. What percent of the final solution is concentrate?
- A. 12%
- B. 20%
- C. 25%
- D. 33%
Answer: B. The concentrate is 3 parts out of a total of 3 + 12 = 15 parts. As a fraction that is 3/15 = 1/5 = 20%. Choice A uses the parts of water instead of concentrate; choice C wrongly divides 3 by 12 (the water alone) to get 25%; choice D reflects a 1-in-3 ratio, which is not what the numbers describe. Reading the total carefully — parts of the whole, not just one component — is the key to ratio and proportion items on this test.

Frequently asked questions
Is this the real HESI A2 exam or a leaked copy? No. It is original practice material for self-study; it is not the live exam and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the test publisher.
Does it cover all the sections I’ll see on the test? It covers the core academic and science areas — math, reading, vocabulary, grammar, biology, chemistry, and anatomy & physiology. Confirm which sections your specific program requires, as schools select different combinations.
Will practicing this guarantee I pass? No honest resource can promise a score. Consistent, rationale-focused practice builds the knowledge and pacing that improve your odds, but the result depends on your preparation.
