TEAS Exam


Hi everyone!

I will be applying for admission to the Fall 2010 R.N. program at CSN. I am going to meet with a Health Programs advisor in September. Can anyone tell me how I would go about registering to take the TEAS exam? I would like to get a head start on this or at least acquire all of the information I need so I'm not freaking out at the last minute.

Thank you in advance!

some more thoughts on the teas.... the book that ATI provides is very helpful. it's usually cheapest on their website ($36.00) but you might get lucky and find it used. any science subjects that you haven't learned, i would familiarize yourself with. i almost didn't pass the science section because of the life science and chemistry portions and something like a "chemistry for dummies" book from library would've improved my score

The TEAS test is pretty simple. However, I would strongly advise you to brush up on your Biology. Buying a GED practice test book at Barnes & Noble might help also. I heard many people had difficulty with the TEAS test, but in my opinion the NLN was a lot harder. However, it's different for everyone.

I wish you all the luck.

I am currently a pre-nursing student at CSN. I got the book from ATI and am planning on taking the TEAS in Sept or October. If anyone is interested in a study group let me know. I do fine with the reading and english but not so well with the math and science.

Hi! I just took the TEAS on 8/1 and I passed! (barely! But good enough to make the minimum grade req'd). I'm applying for the spring 2010 sem.

I highly recommend using the ATI study guide. I found the real test similar to the practice test on the book. The only thing I had difficulty with was the chemistry questions, I didn't anticipate how much chem questions they have on there.

Overall, I suggest getting the book. It Helped me a lot. Practice, practice, practice! And manage your time when you're taking the practice test. Goood luck!

I was also worried on the math part when I took the test. But the ATI study book helped a while lot. Make sure u are familiar with the formulas. Anticipate a lot o. FrActions, ratio/prop, and percentage. Dfinitely review your science, I felt confident because I thoght I knew my chem but I had brainfarts. So make sure u review your science really well.

The reading and English is pretty easy, just be careful though because 80% is the minimum gr req'd for reading.
