Hello! I just took my TEAS 2 weeks ago and honestly, it wasn't bad at all! I bought the Kaplan Nursing School Entrance Exam book and that was all I "studied" (I basically just read through the book once). I was pleasantly surprised by the TEAS questions when I took it--much easier than expected and I ended up scoring in the 99th percentile! I would suggest just brushing up on your basic math, there isn't really a whole lot you can do to prepare for the reading/vocab.

Best of luck to you!!

I did not study for the TEAS. Just walked in to take it and scored 99%. Honestly, I really don't think it's too big of a deal. I think people stress out over it more than they need to.

You could get the studyguide for TEAS. I used that to study. The test itself was very straightforward. You just need to be able to do math quickly, that's all. I'd say get the studyguide.

Good luck!

I didn't study for the TEAS at all and scored very well. It was very straightforward and covered basic subjects. That being said.. if you really feel like you want some sort of preparation for the test then go ahead and purchase the study guide. Good luck.
