12. TEAS Science & Math Tips

    kveban replied to kveban's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hi JBaker: Thank you for your kind words - I am definitely psyched! Unfortunately, I can't answer your question regarding ATI. I believe ATI is the maker of the TEAS test and they sell a Study Guide that goes with the test. I didn't know they have...
