HESI A2 Vocabulary Practice Test Questions
Question 1 of 5
What is another word for EXPEDITE?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Rush. To expedite means to accelerate the progress or speed of something, to hasten or facilitate. 'Transfer' (choice A) means to move from one place to another, 'Cancel' (choice C) means to call off, and 'Hold' (choice D) means to keep or detain. Therefore, 'Rush' is the most appropriate synonym for expedite in this context.

Question 3 of 5
A tuberculin skin test should be read within 24 hours of administration.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct preposition to use after 'within 24 hours' in this context is 'of.' Therefore, the tuberculin skin test should be read within 24 hours of administration. The other choices ('before,' 'after,' 'during') do not correctly convey the relationship between the timing of reading the test and the administration.
Question 4 of 5
She was so mad at her boyfriend, she _____ on him when he called.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: hung up.' In this context, 'hung up' is the correct phrasal verb to indicate ending a phone call abruptly. The phrase 'hung up' means to abruptly end a phone call. The other choices do not fit the context. 'Picked' implies selecting something, 'held' means to grasp or support something, and 'held on' implies maintaining a grip or connection rather than ending the call.
Question 5 of 5
After robbing the bank, _____.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: After robbing the bank, 'the thief fled' is the correct choice as it logically follows the action of robbing a bank. The singular pronoun 'he' in choice B is not appropriate as 'the thief' is singular. Choices C and D use 'they,' which is a plural pronoun and does not agree with 'the thief,' making them grammatically incorrect.
