Before you start

Is the HESI A2 practice test really free?

Yes. You get one practice exam attempt and one diagnostic baseline in each subject free. You can start as a guest without a credit card. Worked explanations are limited to two as a guest or three total with a free account. Extra exams, retakes, and full worked explanations require Premium.

Looking for more practice? Premium includes two additional full practice exams: Practice exam B and Practice exam C.

Which subjects can I practice?

Math, reading comprehension, vocabulary and general knowledge, grammar, anatomy and physiology, biology, and chemistry. Choose the subjects your school requires. The practice exam includes 310 questions if you select all seven subjects: 275 scored and 35 unscored practice-pilot questions.

How long does each option take?

The diagnostic adapts within your selected subject, so the number of questions varies. You’ll see a subject-specific time estimate before starting. The practice exam is untimed, and its length depends on the subjects you choose. You can pause and resume either option.

Do I need an account?

No account is needed to start. Guest progress is saved in this browser session. Use the same browser to return, or create a free account to keep your progress with your account.

Is this an official HESI exam?

No. This is HESI A2 practice by Nurse.org, not an official or proctored exam. Practice results are not official HESI scores or a guarantee of your test-day result. Nurse.org is not affiliated with Elsevier.
