*The Power of the Few*
You do not need to memorize every single topic of anatomy and physiology. The HESI A2
Exam will only test you over 20% of the yearlong anatomy course. Yeah, only 20%! So
instead of bombarding or overwhelming you with as much information as possible, we
follow Pareto's Law of 80/20. In this case, 80% of the actual HESI exam questions are based
on only 20% of the material in the A&P course. This is why the Ready For The HESI study
guide is so effective: we only give you the material you REALLY need to know. And to take it
a step further, on the table of contents (previous page) we have highlighted the most
important lessons of this study guide. HESI ALWAYS asks about these highlighted body
systems. Of course, we do encourage you to go over every lesson to achieve the highest
grade possible.
Out of everything in this entire packet, the fill in the blanks and labeling pages are more
important than the multiple choice. If you can label or fill in the definition without clues from
multiple choice answers, the HESI will be a walk in the park on a sunshine day. ;)

We believe our product is THE only formidable review you will find on anatomy and
physiology as far as the HESI A2 Exam is concerned. Many students who have used this
study guide have passed the anatomy section of the HESI. We consider passing a 70% or
better … but nursing schools have their own criteria. However, if for some reason, you are not
happy, simply email us or call us and we will process a refund. No questions asked, ever.
About Us
We started this company because we were tired of seeing students overwhelmed,
unprepared and frustrated over what to study for the HESI. So, we started thinking and came
up with the idea to offer a product that provided students more results in less time. So by
using the Pareto Law of 80/20, we developed our study guide, focusing on what gives the
students the most bang. We jump up and down (try to imagine that one) when we hear a
student aced their test because helping students prepare for their HESI is what we are good
at. We are a small business that is easily reachable, responsive, and caring. You are
important to us.
