Default Re: ABOUT THE TEAS TEST
I would first ask what is your educational background. I have my bachelors with all my science pre-req classes completed and I thought the text was pretty easy. I got a 81% and I would say that my weakest area was math which is what I expected from the get go. I studied fractions which is what I thought I needed the most help on but I got 100% on that but in the 70's on proportions and other areas so I would say if you have a main area that you know you dont do as good in you would probably want to focus on that area. I thought the science area would be difficult but it was much easier than the study guide advised. anyways good luck

i dont have any degree yet i just finished my pre-reqs last fall.
i got a B in english 101
A in anatomy and physiology
and B in micro...

im concern about the reading and science
because for example there are alot of things to remember in anatomy and physiology alone... i just feel like i dont know what topic to focus on.
and for reading, im just worried if i dont have enough time to read the passage and answer the qs. to the best of my ability!

over all i think im a pretty average student. i study hard to get the grade that i want! last time i took a test similar to this was back in high school... and i passed everything i needed to pass, im just a little nervous for this one.

I took my TEAS last year May and got an 80%, I like Math so I did really well, I would probably review fraction, ratio & portions, percentages (Ex. 80 is what % of 100), dividing fractions, improper fraction and lowest terms and decimals. The reading and English parts was really easy, my essays weren’t that long and English was on proper grammar and spelling. The science part, I had stuff about rocks sediments, a little bit of chemistry (ex, like the element symbol) I also had a few graphs and some questions about the earth. They had some A&P, but there were about the locations of some body part (anterior, posterior, lateral). Overall, it wasn't that bad...I'm sure you'll do find...keep me posted.

You'll do fine! It's an overall score so if you bomb the reading comp portion of it, but do really well on the rest of it you'll still do well. This site helped me out a lot! http://www.testprepreview.com/teas_test_breakdown.htm
Hopefully this helps! Good Luck!!!
