May 13, 2009: As a mature student it's been awhile since I aced any exam. This book was a perfect study aid for me. It includes everything I needed for review for the HESI exam. The basic math, english, and science practise tests certainly helped strengthen my skills and my confidence. The step by step explanations and hints on what to expect for the big scary test put a smile on my face, and I hope it does the same for you.

February 19, 2009:
I bought this book to help review for the AA2 exam. I was hoping that it would give some insight into the test format, and provide some good study direction. What a waste of time and money! The text has huge sections devoted to the math and grammar sections - and they are the easiest parts of the test! If you can deal with 8th grade math and reading, you will score in the 90th percentile. The most difficult segments, A&P and Biology, are glossed over, with about 9 pages of information each, whereas the math and grammar have around 50 pages. Pretty pointless, since the easy pasts of the test are over 50 questions, and the hardest parts that the "guide" glosses over are around 30, and weighted more. The book did not offer up one useful bit of knowledge for Biology or A&P.
Do yourself a favor, see if your school offers a quick physiology refresher and take that. You will be better served. The book even states that you should study all kinds of different systems! Well golly gee, I just paid 30 bucks to have someone tell me to go review all my A&P lectures! How helpful!
This book will not help you, as it claims, "Ace your admissions assessment." It exists solely to take money from your pocket.
The information is scattered and unhelpful, there are plenty of free websites you can find that will give you a better review for the test than this book every could.
