What people like
- Great for studying on the go
- Helped me pass my exam
- Good explanations for answers
What they complain about
- Support never actually helps
- Keeps crashing when you open it
- Won't give you a refund
Passed 1st Try
Great app, with great questions, and even better explanations. The answer explanations is what makes this worth the premium. Spend the money for a month, and if you go through all the questions and understand all the explanations, you’re gonna pass the HESI
Pointless
Makes you download another app don’t waste your time
Good App (paired with the Elsevier book)
So, I only needed to take the Reading, Math, Biology, and Chemistry portions of the HESI exam. This app in conjunction with the HESI prep book by Elsevier really helped me a lot. I ended up getting a 94.5 cumulative score. 100 on the Biology, 92 on the Chemistry, 96 on the math, and 90 on the reading. That being said do not expect to see the questions on this app on the exam. The exam tests your critical thinking so, the app combined with the book gives you all the basic knowledge you need but, you need to apply that knowledge on the test. It is also important to note that if you took bio and chem (or whatever courses match with the exam sections you are taking) and then you study with the prep book and app, you should be fine. But, be warned the chemistry section was very random and the prep was only slightly helpful. I highly recommend going over the periodic table properties thoroughly. I knew the biology so well because I just took Microbio prior to the test and had a huge biology review in the course. The prep and app are GREAT for the math and reading though. All the being said, I studied for only 2 weeks and got these scores so, this is a great resource!
App needs to be serviced
Used this app to help prepare for my test soon. I bought the one time purchase for all access and it is really helpful! However there are so many bugs and glitches and when I try to add an account the app crashes. When I try to restore my purchase on my new phone as well, it crashes. So many crashes and very slow. I hate using it due to this reason 😕
Not for A&P
I feel like it helped in the grammar and reading comprehension categories, math too, but the A&P HESI was totally different than what was on the app. I did not feel that this app prepared me well. You definitely need to know the material from your textbooks.
Amazing for on the go!
I couldn’t recommend this enough! Perfect for on the go and quick review! I had work, school, and other commitments, but adding this to my Home Screen instead of TikTok was the game changer:) I scored a 93.34% on the Hesi A2!
Horrible
This version of the app doesn’t work! I must download another app and pay $$
Nice feature
My favorite part about this app is that it’s easy to pick which subjects you want to be tested on. I don’t want to answer physics questions if I’m not be asked to take that on the HESI! I love the endless supply of quizzes.
Works sometimes
I paid for the app and it is always buffers 🤔😒 I feel the questions are good and it’s good on the go app study while your inline BUT it may not load fast enough.HOPE they fix that ASAP
Great way to study
I passed my NCLEX-RN on the first try!!
NOT ENOUGH QUESTIONS
To pay 15$ for this app is to pay 15$ for like, 100 questions per subject. That means as I practice I am CONSTANTLY getting repeat questions. What a rip off
Love the app!
The app is super useful. I got all passing grades on my HESI exam I also used the Elsevier review book. The app is great to use anywhere. I used it on my phone a lot to do some quick exams to refresh. It’s a great study tool but I would recommend it with the Elsevier book.
Not enough questions in question bank
I do feel this is a great app but there are a lot of recycled questions so i feel the progress is inaccurate
I passed the HESI a2
I got a cumulative score of 84% and you might not think that score is good but mind you, I am HORRIBLE at testing. This app helped me pass the HESI a2 and I believe if you get the $16 subscription, you can pass your exam too. This app provides great practice questions that are on/related to the HESI a2 exam. However, I did not have physiology as a section for my exam. I don't think this app provides good questions for physiology but that did not affect me. If you think it will affect you, study physiology separately. Lastly, I just wanted to say thank you to the developers of this app, I wouldn't have passed without you!
App doesn’t work
Love the app... that is, the 5% of the time it actually works! Don’t be fooled you might be thinking “what’s better than studying on the go?” Well, pocket prep has the answer... logging in, closing out, and rebooting due to continuous crashes! So hey, if you find yourself on a bus or plane with 3 hours to kill, then this app is perfect...between all the crashes and reboots, you’re bound to get in 10 minutes of studying!
It’s ok
Sometimes the app closes by itself. Have to restart the exam again. Frustrating. Very slow.. app has a lot of glitches
Memorization tool
At best, this app should only be used once every couple days. Questions are repetitive with answers in exact same format every time. You’ll find yourself memorizing the answers instead of understanding the question. You’re better off reviewing general knowledge in each subject and using this to test yourself a few times. Zero questions were in my actual HESI exam. Still a decent test tool. Scored in the low 90s range on the app. I ended up scoring low 90s on my HESI exam.
I passed
I passed using this for 4 days lol and nursehub 10/10 recommend
DO NOT BUY
App worked for a good 3-5 weeks and then logged me out. Contacted customer service through email and they told me to contact them through the app instead. I can’t contact you if it logged me out and won’t let me back in.
I PASSED!!!
Hi everyone, I took my HESI on 09/11/2019, and I am so happy to announce I passed Anatomy & Physiology, math, vocab, reading comprehension and grammar with scores 80% and above and 76% for A&P. This is the ONLY app I used to study, along with my Hesi Elsevier study book, and MathDude YouTube videos. I bought the premium version, which I enjoyed, however it tends to lag quit a bit, I would have also liked if there were of an array of questions, because I felt like I would get the same questions over and over for A&P.
An appreciation
I thank the HESI A2 platform and all they do to help people in passing the HESI
If you want to pass get this app
I have browsed around with other app but nothing ever stick like this one this, in few week of practicing and preparing I was more confident and pass my HESI in less than 4 hrs . These providers know what they did when they created this app thank you.
Umm, not sure what to write!
I don't see a selection of passages or for me to select my topic to study. I don't like how it is set automatically for you.i like apps that let you choose the topic and study slowly.
How to make stress fun
This app was fantastic. I recommend it for anyone taking the HESI. It made a high intense study session fun and was useful for preparation for the test! Recommend over and over again and worth $15 a month!!
TECHNICAL ISSUES
I literally just bought the full version, spent 30 minutes doing 100 questions and while it was "submitting" my exam, the app crashed. Awesome 😃 how are you going to charge so much for something that doesn't even work?
Aced HESI
Used exclusively this app to study for the HESI for about two months. Convenient, fun, and most importantly, worked wonders.
Horrendous customer service
Horrible customer support , I’ve sent numerous request for assistance to restore access to the practice questions I PURCHASED. Support team shows active but no reply. Will not be purchasing more from this app, don’t waist your time reaching out to customer support.
Great app for casual studying!
I liked having this app available to study while i was doing other things, like between sets of exercise at the gym. It was very convenient and I feel that it, in part, helped me do well on my HESI A2
SCAM
I bought the $14.99 option & used the app for no more than 30 minutes with that feature. After that, it downgraded me back to the free feature & does not allow me to restore my purchase. It took the money out of my bank account but will not give me the feature I paid for!!!!!! PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS APP IT PERFORMS PORELY. THEY WILL NOT GIVE ME A REFUND!!!!
Worth every penny
I recently passed the HESI with a score of 91%. This app really helped a lot with vocabulary, grammar, reading comprehension and math.
Disappointed
I can not sign up as the app refuses my email address as valid. :(
