HESI A2 Reading Comprehension Tutoring Chicago
The HESI A2 has 8 academic modules but the Reading Comprehension and Mathematics portions are often the modules that give test-takers the most difficulty. Nearly every career will require a sound grasp of reading and writing and as a nurse having superior reading comprehension is a key component of your success. If you are unable to read a chart or you cannot read a chart and understand immediately all that is written there, you become a danger to your patients. Nurses need to be able to read and understand at a high level in order to be successful in their profession. Nurses who have an extensive vocabulary will be able to better communicate with their peers and patients.
We will help you build your vocabulary in order to be successful on your HESI A2. The vocabulary section of the HESI A2 covers:
- Medical Terminology
- Common Medical Prefixes and Their Meanings
- Common Medical Suffixes and Their Meanings
- Prefixes
- Common Vocabulary Concepts
- Root of words
The Reading Comprehension requires mastery of the following common skills:

Our HESI Master Plan to Success
HESI A2 Mathematics Tutoring Chicago
Although nursing is largely science based, math is an integral part of your success. Math is used to do a number of calculations, no matter what branch of nursing you desire to enter. Nurses must also use math to analyze information, read and understand patient information and just complete daily activities. The mathematics portion of the HESI A2 exam will cover:
- Computation with whole numbers
- Addition & Subtraction
- Multiplication & Division
- Fractions
- Decimals
- Percentages
- Military Time
- Roman Numerals
- Basic Measurement Conversions
At Suprex Learning Center Chicago we can help equip you with mental math practice as well as tips and techniques to conquer this portion. The goal is not for you to simply master this portion alone, but to improve your overall mathematics knowledge and use these skills as your progress through nursing school.
Critical Thinking on the HESI Admission Assessment Exam
The HESI A2 Critical Thinking section is designed to provide a a brief snapshot of how you think critically when you are in certain healthcare situations as a nurse. These questions are more “common sense” questions and are more individual responses from your own thinking.
The 4 Categories Include
- Problem Solving
- Biases and Ethical Dilemmas
- Argument Analysis
- Analysis of Data
The best approach to the Critical Thinking section of the HESI A2 is to
1. Identify the most urgent problem
2. Select the best response for treating the specific problem
3. Know the patient: is the patient an elderly individual, child, female, etc?
4. Try not to make assumptions
