I just took the Teas Test


Hi all. I just took the Teas test this morning. I was so sure that I'd find out whether my score was good enough to get into the school --today--but I was told they need to have a meeting to see what the minimum score is that they will accept. There were 4 of us. They will be having the test again 2 more times this month. I figured I could take it again in a couple of weeks if I needed to, but not now. Now I won't know if I'm okay until some time in October!
Advice? I would get the ATI study manual and also make sure I got the "on computer" practice test. I was able to buy these, and boy did it help, because the format you take the test in- is the same. It was no surprise how to do it. I ran out of time in the math section. For the last 8 - 10 questions, I just made quick guesses because I only had a minute left. I figured a wrong answer was better than not even trying. I felt sick ;I was so nervous durring the math section!!!!
Relieved that it's over!! Study percentages, fractions, anything to do with math!!
I hope I can report that my numbers are good...I know what they are-just not if the're good enough to get me into the school Good luck if you're taking it soon!!!

Let's see.... How do you figure the mass of an atom? Know how to form a new atom from the Periodic table of elements; I don't know. Allelles (spelling) were on mine. Questions about rock/plates. My first question was actually on clouds . I know the last time a patient asked me about clouds ; I didn't know it then either! The math was horrific. I studied this the most. I knew how to multiply and add fractions, but drew a blank. I know how to figure percentages, but lost it!! I was very panicked seeing the clock tick away. I think there were 45 math questions. That's alot since I had no calculator. All of my scrap paper was used up. It was just awful Now I get to sit around and wait to find out if I should start all over again Can you tell I Love these smilies?
Good luck anyone who is taking it. I'll let ya'll know if I get in when I know!

Thank you Hubbys girl I appreciate all the help!! I keep hearing that there are questions in the science portion of the test on rocks and clouds... how odd... the study guides I've been using have not mentioned either topic!! yikes!! ... Well back to studying, thank you again, and I hope to hear good news about your test!!... I have to wait after I take my test to, to hear if I was accepted, a month!... and what a long month that will be!! This site is a-w-e-s-o-m-e! I love it!

It must be a big relief. My test is coming up in a few weeks. Is there a lot of spelling and vocabulary? The English part is what is making me the most nervous!
