    Yeah i failed my first try mainly due to stress about not knowing what to expect on the exam but after i did all of my remediations, got a feel of how HESI do their testing, and got help from my professors on how to answer and break down nursing questions I passed the second time and now i can move on to the next classes in the nursing program.

Im just now deeing your comment but i used the remediations hesi provided me and also did qa lot of practice questions from the Evolve site since they're the ones that make HESI exams. I also did the questions out of that green Hesi book sge shows in this video and read the fundamental portion.

      Thanks for the breakdown! Also don’t forget to know UAP vs LPN vs RN, ADPIE, ABCs and Maslows. Those are all extremely important.

    I’ve been studying for my HESI fundamentals. Did you feel like if I did really well on the 150 HESI practice questions that will reflect how I do on the actual exam? I guess what I’m trying to ask is did you feel the practice questions were a good reflection of the exam?

    • @KristinaMerrill
      @KristinaMerrill  3 роки тому +3

      I think questions help for sure! But ultimately it’s knowing how to answer any type of HESI question. Knowing ABCs, the roles of UAP vs LPN vs RN and concepts like this. You could ace all those questions but then have a question you’ve never seen before. Questions always help regardless! I would say use that as a guide but don’t solely rely on them! I hope that helps! :)

    Thank you for this video! Did the HESI ask alot about electrolytes specifically concerning symptoms of, for example, hyper/hypokalemia?

    • @KristinaMerrill
      @KristinaMerrill  3 роки тому +2

      Thanks for watching! To be honest I studied those electrolytes so much and not a single question concerning that was on there. But keep in mind that all tests are different so it very well can be on there. I would look over the major ones like potassium, calcium and sodium. Good luck! 🙂
